Section 1644.8 Of Chapter 4.4. Genetic Depositories From California Health And Safety Code >> Division 2. >> Chapter 4.4.
1644.8
. Any entity that receives genetic material of a human being
that may be used for conception shall make available to the person
depositing his or her genetic material a form that, if signed by the
depositor, would revoke any previous expression of intent regarding
the use of his or her genetic material necessary to satisfy the
conditions set forth in Section 249.5 of the Probate Code. The use of
the form is not mandatory, and the form is not the exclusive means
of expressing a depositor's intent with respect to revocation or
amendment of a prior expression of intent. The form shall include
advisements in substantially the following form:
"The use of this form to revoke or amend a previous form for
designating whether a child conceived after your death will be your
heir is not mandatory. This specification can be revoked or amended
only in a writing signed by you (and not by spoken words).
These issues can be complex, and you should discuss them with your
attorney."
