How to use this library#
This working snapshot dated October 9, 2026 indexes statutes, regulations, court rules, constitutional provisions, pattern jury instructions and agency guidance recorded in the inherited Roadmaps authority register. It is not a claim to cover all law relevant to the Roadmaps or all later amendments, and its numbering must be reconciled against competing manuscript series before release. The source generator and full underlying verification record must be preserved and re-run before publication; this static export does not itself prove that the register remains synchronized. The snapshot contains 636 rows: 162 historically labeled "verified on official source," 442 "verified on reproduction host — official re-check pending," and 32 "pending verification." Those are accurately reproduced inherited labels, not certifications of independently current 2026 law or human review.
Rows are grouped the way a lawyer looks for them: California codes, one heading per code (smaller codes are gathered under "Other California codes"); the California Constitution and Rules of Court; federal statutes by title of the United States Code; federal regulations by title of the Code of Federal Regulations; California regulations by title of the California Code of Regulations; the federal rules of procedure and evidence; pattern jury instructions; and agency guidance. Within each group rows are sorted by section or rule number.
Each row gives five things. The citation links to the source page that was read (rows pending verification are not linked). Where several pages registered the same section for different subdivisions, the row lists the subdivisions cited; a short heading in parentheses (for example a regulation's caption) is the provision's own title. What the Roadmaps rely on it for is the first proposition the register records for that authority, trimmed to about two hundred characters and marked with an ellipsis where it was shortened; it is a pointer, not a summary of the whole provision, and the page that uses the authority states the proposition in full and in context. The grade, verification status and pages using it follow.
The verification column uses three public phrases and no others. Verified on official source reports that the inherited register recorded an official-source opening and a proposition match in its earlier verification cycle. It does not establish that the provision or its subsequent amendments were independently opened during this October 16, 2026 checkpoint, and it does not substitute for checking the operative version on the relevant date. Verified on reproduction host — official re-check pending means the text was opened on a reliable reproduction (for example California.Public.Law, Justia or the Legal Information Institute) and matched there, but has not yet been re-read on the official host. Pending verification covers authorities carried forward from Release 1 that have not been re-read in the current cycle, and the few authorities whose text was read only through a description or quotation in another source. Where the same authority was registered more than once, the row shows the strongest historically recorded verification; this could conceal a later unreviewed amendment or a proposition-specific limitation. No row establishes independent human verification, and historical status aggregation does not clear adverse authority, privacy, privilege, or LEAP dependencies. Roadmap 148 is itself subject to competing 144–149 namespace reconciliation before links are activated.
The grade column uses the series' certainty grades, explained with examples in Roadmap 148: Settled (statutory or regulatory text, or a binding holding); Majority/likely (consistent appellate treatment short of a binding holding); Unsettled/split; Documented report (a public record or official statement describing something, not an adjudication — most agency guidance carries this grade); and Analytical inference. A few decisions from courts outside the Ninth Circuit are graded Persuasive only. Where the register grades part of a proposition differently — for example, settled text whose application to a particular setting is unsettled — the row says so ("Settled; in part Unsettled/split").
The pages column lists the serial number of every Roadmap that relies on the authority, drawn from the register's own page lists, from each page's proposition crosswalk and from the register identifiers each page cites. The serial numbers match the series index and the Navigator (Roadmap 150). An authority appears here because at least one draft/reference Roadmap registered reliance on it; its appearance does not establish that the cited page has been published, approved, or mapped to the final canonical serial. Public records, court filings and notices, statistical reports and press or practitioner reporting are not statutes or regulations and are not listed; the entity and docket records are collected in Roadmap 146, and decisions of courts are in the Case Library (Roadmap 145).
To evaluate a citation, open the authoritative text for the operative date, check amendments, later judicial construction, and the proposition in its full context; a one-line index entry cannot establish applicability. Cross-references to Roadmaps 148 and 149 are held pending serial/body reconciliation and must not be activated as resolved public routing.

Do not treat this frozen source register as a 2026 statute book or a complete legal update. Three targeted developments show why the full primary-law refresh is mandatory before release. First, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services states that compliance with its 2024 42 C.F.R. Part 2 SUD-record confidentiality rule was required beginning February 16, 2026; its updated guidance distinguishes general HIPAA coverage from covered Part 2 programs, lawful holders, and proceeding-specific consent or court-order protections. These rules cannot be extrapolated to every medical or psychiatric record. HHS Part 2 final-rule fact sheet (external site); HHS complaint guidance (external site).
Second, the U.S. Department of Justice amended 28 C.F.R. § 35.200(b) through an interim final rule effective April 20, 2026: the specific Title II web/mobile accessibility compliance dates were extended to April 26, 2027 (public entities with populations of 50,000 or more) and April 26, 2028 (smaller public entities and special district governments). This does not defer the preexisting general Title II nondiscrimination and effective-communication duties. Official Federal Register, 91 Fed. Reg. 20902 (external site).
Third, a reproduced version of California Government Code § 12965 identifies a January 1, 2026 amendment (SB 477), including provisions affecting CRD right-to-sue procedure and tolling. The direct California Legislative Information page was not retrievable in this checkpoint (HTTP 403); the 2026 version and any subsequently effective changes must be authenticated on an official California source before any filing-date advice. Identified nonofficial statutory reproduction (external site).
Source-grade rule: the federal dates above are direct official primary-source checks; the California amendment identification is a reproduction-only lead, not official authentication. These alerts are not inserted as falsely verified additions to the frozen 636-row register. Each requires a source-register and affected-page reconciliation at the next genuine regeneration.

What this library cannot do#
This library is an index to the series' own reliance on statutes and regulations. It is not a statute book, a citator or legal advice. It does not reproduce the text of any provision, and the one-line proposition in each row is a trimmed pointer to the place where the Roadmaps rely on the authority — not a statement of everything the provision says, not a statement that it applies to any reader's situation, and not a substitute for reading the provision and the page that uses it.
The library reflects the October 9, 2026 inherited register snapshot. Statutes, regulations, rules and agency guidance change; "verified" reports an inherited historical source check only. Regeneration alone is not proof of currentness: the operative version, effective date, later amendment history, adverse judicial construction and affected proposition must actually be inspected, reconciled and recorded. Rows verified on a reproduction host, and rows pending verification, have not yet been confirmed against the official text, and no row has yet been verified by a human reviewer. A pattern jury instruction or a piece of agency guidance is listed because a page relies on it, not because it binds a court.
Some entries quote or summarize statutory and agency filing periods, including professional-negligence, administrative-charge, and summary-judgment timing; that makes the index deadline-sensitive notwithstanding the lack of an individualized calculation. It neither determines a reader's deadline, claim or defendant nor asserts that any particular person or entity complied or failed to comply. Questions about how a provision applies to particular facts belong with a lawyer; Roadmap 009 explains how to find one.

About this page. This roadmap is part of a free public-education series on claims and accountability mechanisms connected to correctional healthcare and healthcare employment in California. It is general information about the law, current as of the date shown, and the law may have changed since. It is not legal advice and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney who knows the facts of a particular situation. Reading this page, or contacting its author, does not create an attorney-client relationship, and communications with the author are not confidential or privileged. Please do not send case documents, medical records, privileged communications, Social Security numbers, or other sensitive personal information; the site does not accept them. The author does not recommend particular lawyers, receives nothing of value from any referral, and charges nothing for this material. Descriptions of lawsuits refer to allegations unless a court has made a finding, and a legal theory described here does not mean that any person or entity is liable. The author's interest in the subject is described in the series' statement of interest.

Important legal-information notice#
KPSGILL.com is not a law firm. No one at KPSGILL.com is a lawyer, and no person associated with the website provides legal advice through these Roadmaps.
The CFMG–Wellpath Claims & Accountability Roadmaps are provided for general educational, research, public-interest, and informational purposes. They explain legal concepts, statutes, cases, procedural issues, evidence considerations, and publicly available records in general terms.
Nothing on KPSGILL.com creates an attorney-client relationship. Reading the website, using a worksheet, following a Roadmap, sending information to the website, or communicating with anyone associated with KPSGILL.com does not make that person your lawyer and does not create attorney-client privilege or confidentiality.
The Roadmaps do not determine whether any particular person has a valid legal claim, who should be sued, what claims should be brought, what defenses apply, what a case is worth, or when an individual filing deadline expires.
Laws, regulations, court decisions, procedural rules, and filing deadlines can change and can depend upon facts, jurisdiction, custody status, employment status, the identity of the parties, and other circumstances. A general limitation period or procedural rule described on this website should never be treated as a calculation of an individual's actual deadline.
Anyone considering a legal claim, responding to a lawsuit, facing a filing deadline, deciding whether to preserve or disclose records, or making another decision with legal consequences should consult a qualified licensed attorney in the appropriate jurisdiction.
Primary sources should be reviewed independently. Where a Roadmap discusses CFMG, Wellpath, counties, clinicians, employers, or other entities, the discussion should not be understood as establishing liability merely because an entity or legal theory is discussed.
