What it does

Existing law lists the person or persons who, in an order of succession, have the right to control, and duty of disposition of, the remains of a deceased person if other directions have not been given by the decedent. The first among the list of persons so authorized pursuant to this list is an agent under a power of attorney for health care who has the right and duty of disposition. A person upon whom the duty of interment is imposed by law who omits to perform that duty within a reasonable period of time is guilty of a misdemeanor.
