[by MAIL] - 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 at Irvine, California in the ordinary course of
business. I am aware that on motion of the party served,
service is presumed invalid if postage cancellation date
or postage meter date is more than one day after date of
deposit for mailing this 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 March 14, 2018, at Los Angeles, California.
