Cal. Code Regs. tit. 10 § 260.000
The section numbers in this Subchapter 2 of these rules are keyed to the section numbers in the Corporate Securities Law of 1968. The section numbers in this subchapter all commence with "260" with a decimal point and three numbers following the decimal point which correspond to the last three numbers of the relevant section in the Corporate Securities Law of 1968. For example, Section "260.017" is a rule adopted relating to Section 25017 of the Corporate Securities Law of 1968. Where there is more than one rule relating to a particular section the second three numbers are followed by a second decimal point and one or more further numbers to distinguish the different rules adopted relating to that same section. Where there are many rules relating to a single section, as for example under Section 25140 of the Corporate Securities Law of 1968 dealing with the "fair, just and equitable" standard, the last set of numbers are not always consecutive, in order that additional sections can be added without renumbering all of the rules relating to that Code section.
These Rules may be cited without the prefactory numbers "260" where the context makes clear that a rule under the Corporate Securities Law of 1968 is referred to.
