REVENUE AND TAXATION CODE
SECTION 19131-19187




19131.  (a) If any taxpayer fails to make and file a return required
by this part on or before the due date of the return or the due date
as extended by the Franchise Tax Board, then, unless it is shown
that the failure is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful
neglect, 5 percent of the tax shall be added to the tax for each
month or fraction thereof elapsing between the due date of the return
(determined without regard to any extension of time for filing) and
the date on which filed, but the total penalty may not exceed 25
percent of the tax. In the case of a commencing corporation, the
penalty shall apply to all tax accruable on the due date of the
return. The penalty so added to the tax shall be due and payable upon
notice and demand from the Franchise Tax Board.
   (b) In the case of an individual or fiduciary who fails to file a
return of tax required by this part within 60 days of the date
prescribed for filing of that return (determined with regard to any
extension of time for filing), unless it is shown that the failure is
due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, this penalty
may not be less than the lesser of one hundred thirty-five dollars
($135) or 100 percent of the amount of tax required to be shown on
the return.
   (c) For purposes of this section, the amount of tax required to be
shown on the return shall be reduced by the amount of any part of
the tax which is paid on or before the date prescribed for payment of
the tax and by the amount of any credit against the tax which may be
claimed upon the return.
   (d) If any failure to file any return is fraudulent, subdivision
(a) shall be applied by:
   (1) Substituting "15 percent" for "5 percent," and
   (2) Substituting "75 percent" for "25 percent."
   (e) This section does not apply to any failure to pay any
estimated tax required by Section 19025 or 19136.
   (f) (1) The penalty described in this section is presumed not to
apply if, with respect to the same taxable year, all of the following
conditions are met:
   (A) A taxpayer fails to make and file a return required by this
part on or before the due date of the return, determined with regard
to any extension of time for filing, and fails to make and file a
return required by Section 6012 of the Internal Revenue Code on or
before the due date of the return, determined with regard to any
extension of time for filing.
   (B) The Franchise Tax Board proposes a deficiency assessment that
is based upon a final federal determination.
   (C) The Commissioner of Internal Revenue or other officer of the
United States determines that the penalty described in Section 6651
(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code does not apply because the
failure to file the federal return on or before the date prescribed
for its filing was due to reasonable cause and not due to willful
neglect.
   (2) The Franchise Tax Board may rebut the presumption described in
paragraph (1) by establishing, by a preponderance of the evidence,
that the taxpayer's failure to make and file a return required by
this part was not due to reasonable cause or was due to willful
neglect.



19132.  (a) (1) Unless it is shown that the failure is due to
reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, a penalty computed
in accordance with paragraph (2) is hereby imposed in the case of
failure to pay any of the following:
   (A) The amount shown as tax on any return on or before the date
prescribed for payment of that tax determined with regard to any
extension of time for payment.
   (B) Any amount in respect of any tax required to be shown on a
return which is not so shown including an assessment made pursuant to
Section 19051 within 15 days of the date of the notice and demand
therefor.
   (C) The amount required to be paid by Section 19021, if
applicable, that is not paid.
   (D) The amount required to be paid by Section 17941 or 23091, if
applicable, that is not paid.
   (E) The amount required to be paid by Section 17948 or 23097, if
applicable, that is not paid.
   (2) The penalty imposed under paragraph (1) shall consist of both
of the following:
   (A) Five percent of the total tax unpaid as defined in subdivision
(c).
   (B) An amount computed at the rate of 0.5 percent per month of the
"remaining tax" as defined in subdivision (d) for each additional
month or fraction thereof not to exceed 40 months during which the
"remaining tax" is greater than zero.
   (3) The aggregate amount of penalty imposed by this subdivision
shall not exceed 25 percent of the total unpaid tax and shall be due
and payable upon notice and demand by the Franchise Tax Board. The
tender of a check or money order does not constitute payment of the
tax for purposes of this section unless the check or money order is
paid on presentment.
   (b) The penalty prescribed by subdivision (a) shall not be
assessed if, for the same taxable year, the sum of any penalties
imposed under Section 19131 relating to failure to file return and
Section 19133 relating to failure to file return after demand is
equal to or greater than the subdivision (a) penalty. In the event
the penalty imposed under subdivision (a) is greater than the sum of
any penalties imposed under Sections 19131 and 19133, the penalty
imposed under subdivision (a) shall be the amount which exceeds the
sum of any penalties imposed under Sections 19131 and 19133.
   (c) For purposes of this section, total tax unpaid means the
amount of tax shown on the return reduced by both of the following:
   (1) The amount of any part of the tax which is paid on or before
the date prescribed for payment of the tax.
   (2) The amount of any credit against the tax which may be claimed
upon the return.
   (d) For purposes of this section, "remaining tax" means total tax
unpaid reduced by the amount of any payment of the tax.
   (e) If the amount required to be shown as a tax on a return is
less than the amount shown as tax on that return, subdivisions (a),
(c), and (d) shall be applied by substituting that lower amount.
   (f) No interest shall accrue on the portion of the penalty
prescribed in subparagraph (B) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a).
   (g) The amendments made by the act adding this subdivision are
operative for notices issued on or after January 1, 1998.



19132.5.  (a) In the case of a qualified taxpayer, no penalty shall
be assessed under Section 19132 if the return is filed timely (not
later than the extended due date granted under Section 18567 or
18604) and the tax required to be paid on or before the due date of
the return, without regard to extension, is paid within the following

19133.  If any taxpayer fails or refuses to furnish any information
requested in writing by the Franchise Tax Board or fails or refuses
to make and file a return required by this part upon notice and
demand by the Franchise Tax Board, then, unless the failure is due to
reasonable cause and not willful neglect, the Franchise Tax Board
may add a penalty of 25 percent of the amount of tax determined
pursuant to Section 19087 or of any deficiency tax assessed by the
Franchise Tax Board concerning the assessment of which the
information or return was required.



19133.5.  (a) In the case of a failure to make a report required
under Section 18152.5 that contains the information required by that
section on the date prescribed therefor (determined with regard to
any extension of time for filing), there shall be paid (on notice and
demand by the Franchise Tax Board and in the same manner as tax) by
the person failing to make the report, an amount equal to fifty
dollars ($50) for each report with respect to which there was such a
failure. In the case of any failure due to negligence or intentional

parties' limited agent solely for purposes of applying Section 19504
with respect to any request by the Franchise Tax Board to examine
records or produce testimony related to any item described in
subdivision (a) or with respect to any subpoena or subpoena duces
tecum for the records or testimony. The appearance of persons or the

considered only to the extent required to be included in the combined
report.
   (3) Section 6662(d)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code is modified
