Summary
Existing law makes it unlawful to, among other things, remove a shopping cart or laundry cart with a specified sign from the premises or parking area of a retail establishment and to abandon those carts at a location other than the premises or parking area of the retail establishment, with the intent to deprive the owner or retailer possession of the cart. Under existing law, in civil proceedings, carts affixed with a specified sign establish a rebuttable presumption affecting the burden of producing evidence that the cart belongs to the person or business named in the specified sign. This bill would state that carts affixed with a specified electronic tag also establish a rebuttable presumption.
