"States may not authorize arrest...for failing to produce identification..."
       Kolender v. Lawson 461 U.S. 352 (1983)

"...may not compel an answer and they must allow the person to leave 
after a reasonable brief period of time...."  - - ibid


California is the Ninth Circuit, no?  See, inter alia,  Martinelli v. 
City of Beaumont, 820 F.2nd 1491 (1987).
