Most recently applied in Friedman v. AARP, Inc. (May 2017)
Enacted by Stats. 1935, Ch. 145.
Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.
“Transact” as applied to insurance includes any of the following:
(a) Solicitation.
(b) Negotiations preliminary to execution.
(c) Execution of a contract of insurance.
(d) Transaction of matters subsequent to execution of the contract and arising out of it.
