Section 513
CA Penal Code § 513 (through 2013 Leg Sess) What's This?
Whenever, prior to an information laid before a magistrate, or an indictment found by a grand jury, charging the commission of embezzlement, the person accused voluntarily and actually restores or tenders restoration of the property alleged to have been embezzled, or any part thereof, such fact is not a ground of defense, but it authorizes the court to mitigate punishment, in its discretion.
(Amended by Stats. 1905, Ch. 520.)
