Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California

I know it's illegal for court staff to give legal advice to anyone at a courthouse. But what law are they violating if they give legal advice? Would they be violating a.) a Business & Professions Code; b.) Penal Code c.) California Rules of the Court d.) Case Law Appellate Authority e.) Code of Civil Procedure f.) internal CourtHouse Rule g.) other law (which one?) ? What specific law would they be violating (state the specific code numbers)?

Among other things, they would be practicing law without a license, as prohibited by the CA Business & Professions Code.

Only a licensed attorney for their jurisdiction(s) in which they are licensed may confer legal advice. They are breaking the law.
