I am readily familiar with the finn'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 under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the above 

is true and correct. 

Executed on November 30, 2015, at Walnut Creek, California.
