§ 12819 Renewal Penalty Waiver Affidavit
This law says you don’t have to pay a penalty when you renew a registration if you swear that you didn’t do any business while the registration was expired.
Jane’s truck registration expired for three months. When she applies to renew it, she signs a statement saying she didn’t use the truck for any work during those three months.
Because Jane provided the sworn statement that no business was done while the truck was unregistered, the state can’t charge her a penalty for the lapse.
