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 November 25, 2008, at Mountain View, California.
