I,
      Donald
      A. Pitcher, certify that:





1.
      I have
      reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of Temecula Valley Bancorp
      Inc.;





2.
      Based
      on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material
      fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made,
      in
      light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading
      with respect to the period covered by this report;





3.
      Based
      on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information
      included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial
      condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and
      for, the periods presented in this report;





4.
      The
      registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing
      and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange
      Act
      Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting
      (as
      defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f))for the registrant and
      have:





(a)
      Designed such
      disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and
      procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material
      information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries,
      is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the
      period in which this report is being prepared;





(b)
      Designed such
      internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control
      over
      financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable
      assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
      of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
      accepted accounting principles;





(c)
      Evaluated the
      effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures and
      presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the
      disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by
      this
      report based on such evaluation; and





(d)
      Disclosed in this
      report any change in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting
      that occurred during the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the
      registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has
      materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
      registrant's internal control over financial reporting; and





5.
      The
      registrant's other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based on our
      most
      recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the
      registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board of
      directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):





(a)
      All significant
      deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal
      control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect
      the registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
      information; and





(b)
      Any fraud,
      whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have
      a
      significant role in the registrant's internal control over financial
      reporting.
