Pro Se 

 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 under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the above is true and correct. Executed on November 7, 2016, at Los 

Angeles, California.
