What is the difference between section 11152 and section 11153 of the California Real Property Code?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Steilberg v. Lackner, 138 Cal.Rptr. 378, 69 Cal.App.3d 780 (Cal. App. 1977):

Finally, we attach special significance to the circumstance that whereas section 11152 narrowly defines its subject and deals with the specific theme of exempting property serving as the home of an applicant, the erms of section 11153.7 are broad and regulate income [69 Cal.App.3d 788] producing real property in general. The clear meaning of the differing language of the two sections is that while section 11152 is a special statute, section 11153.7 is merely a general one. It is a cardinal rule of statutory interpretation that specific statutory regulations control over the general statutes (Rose v. State of California (1942) 19 Cal.2d 713, 723--724, 123 P.2d 505; Bozaich v. State of California (1973) 32 Cal.App.3d 688, 697, 108 Cal.Rptr. 392).
