CA AB2705

Makes it a misdemeanor for any unlicensed person acting as a contractor to violate Section 3700 of the Labor Code (requirement to secure workers' compensation insurance).

Establishes a 2-year statute of limitations for prosecution of violations under this section, rather than the standard 1-year limit for most misdemeanors.

Applies to unlicensed individuals who fail to secure workers' compensation payment obligations while operating as contractors.

States that no state reimbursement to local agencies is required because the law creates a new crime subject to existing statutory reimbursement exemptions.
