Terms Used In California Business and Professions Code 11000.2

  • Contract: A legal written agreement that becomes binding when signed.
  • Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.
  • Rescission: The cancellation of budget authority previously provided by Congress. The Impoundment Control Act of 1974 specifies that the President may propose to Congress that funds be rescinded. If both Houses have not approved a rescission proposal (by passing legislation) within 45 days of continuous session, any funds being withheld must be made available for obligation.
  • Right of rescission: Right to cancel, within three business days, a contract that uses the home of a person as collateral, except in the case of a first mortgage loan. There is no fee to the borrower, who receives a full refund of all fees paid. The right of rescission is guaranteed by the Truth in Lending Act (TILA). Source: OCC
  • Subdivision: means a subdivision of the section in which that term occurs, unless some other section is expressly mentioned. See California Business and Professions Code 15

(c) Any certificate bearing the signature of the purchaser of an interest in an undivided-interest subdivision subject to this section which contains an adequate description of the interest or interests sold and a statement by the purchaser that he or she has not exercised the right of rescission within the time limit set forth in subdivision (a) shall constitute conclusive evidence that the right of rescission has not been exercised in any matter involving the rights of a third party who has acted in good faith in reliance upon representations in the certificate.
