The California Code of Civil Procedure is a California code enacted by the California State Legislature in March 1872 as the general codification of the law of civil procedure in California, alongside the three other original codes. It contains most of the California statutes that govern the filing and litigation of lawsuits in the state's Superior Courts, along with legal notices required in a variety of circumstances, and it includes the statutes of limitations that control the time period during which a lawsuit may be commenced. The code originally also governed the legal profession, but those provisions were later moved to the Business and Professions Code.
