Section 17712 Of Chapter 2. Civil Liability Of Persons Signing License Applications Of Minors From California Vehicle Code >> Division 9. >> Chapter 2.
17712
. (a) The department, upon receipt of satisfactory evidence of
the death of the father and mother or the person or guardian who
signed and verified the application of any minor under Section 17701
or any employer who signed and verified the application of any minor
under subdivision (a) of Section 17706, shall cancel the license,
except as provided in subdivision (e).
(b) The department, upon receipt of the verified application of a
person who has given written consent to the issuance of a license to
a minor as prescribed in Sections 17705 and 17706, for the
cancellation of such minor's license, shall cancel the license,
except as provided in subdivision (e).
(c) The department, upon receipt of satisfactory evidence that
there has been a change of custody of a minor licensed under Chapter
1 (commencing with Section 12500) of Division 6, and upon written
request by the person to whom custody has been transferred, shall
cancel the license.
(d) The department, upon receipt of satisfactory evidence showing
that any minor to whom was issued a license pursuant to Section
17706, has left the employ of the employer who signed and verified
the application for the license, shall cancel the license, except as
provided in subdivision (e).
(e) The department, upon written request by the person to whom
custody of a minor has been transferred, shall transfer the liability
imposed under this chapter to such person upon receipt of such
person's written verified application for acceptance of liability.
Upon receipt, by the department, of such application for acceptance
of liability, the person who had signed and verified the application
of the minor for the driver's license presently held by the minor
shall be relieved from the liability imposed under this chapter. If
such application for acceptance of liability is on file with the
department prior to the receipt of a request for cancellation by the
person who had signed the application of the minor for a driver's
license, the license issued under such application shall not be
canceled so long as the license is otherwise valid. If, however, such
application for acceptance of liability is not on file with the
department prior to the receipt of a request for cancellation by the
person who had signed the application of the minor for a driver's
license, the license issued under such application shall be canceled.
