California Code, Public Utilities Code - PUC § 24403

Every person permitting another person to operate an aircraft under the terms of any rental agreement which provides for any remuneration for the use of such aircraft who fails to comply with Section 24362 is guilty of a misdemeanor and is punishable by a fine of not less than two hundred fifty dollars ($250) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000) or by imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 90 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment.

A failure by a person permitting another person to operate an aircraft under the terms of any rental agreement which provides for any remuneration for the use of such aircraft to obtain a receipt for the delivery of the certification or statement required by Section 24362 to the person renting the aircraft shall be prima facie evidence of a violation of Section 24362.
