In 1848 California wasn't even a state and there were no laws. Anyone who found gold had problems with other miners. The first laws were claim laws. In some camps it was 10 feet and each were allowed one claim. Camps set up claims officers to patrol mines and settle disputes. Punishment for crimes was fast and quick. Small crimes were punished by flogging and more serious crimes like murder was hanging. Lynchings were common and people were hung without a trial.
