I am readily familiar with the firm’s practice of collection and processing correspondence 

for mailing. Under that practice it would be deposited with the U.S. Postal Service on that same 

day with postage thereon fully prepaid in the ordinary course of business. I am aware that on 

motion of the party served, service is presumed invalid if postal cancellation date or postage 

meter date is more than one day after date of deposit for mailing in affidavit. 

I declare that I am employed in the office of a member of the bar of this court at whose 

direction the service was made. 

Executed on August 14, 2008, at Mountain View, California.
