`
`CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE
`
`I, Danielle Dragotta, an employee of the Law Office of David W. Wiechert, located
`at 27136 Paseo Espada, Suite B1123, San Juan Capistrano, declare under penalty and
`perjury that I am over the age of eighteen (18) and not a party to the above-entitled
`proceeding.
`
`On November 21, 2018, I served the forgoing documents, described as NOTICE
`
`OF MOTION AND MOTION FOR BILL OF PARTICULARS on all interested
`parties as follows:
`
` [
`
` ] BY MAIL: I caused such envelope(s) to be deposited in the mail at San Clemente,
`California with postage thereon fully prepaid to the office of the addressee(s) as
`indicated on the attached service list. I am “readily familiar” with this firm’s
`practice of collection and processing correspondence for mailing. It is deposited
`with the U.S. Postal Service on that same day in the ordinary course of business. I
`am aware that on motion of party served, service is presumed invalid if postal
`cancellation date or postage meter date is more than one day after the date of
`deposit for mailing in affidavit.
`
`
`[X] BY E-MAIL: I caused a copy to be transmitted electronically by filing the
`foregoing with the clerk of the District Court using its ECF system, which
`electronically notifies counsel for that party.
`
` [
`
` ] BY PERSONAL SERVICE: I personally delivered the document listed above to
`the persons at the address set forth below.
`
`
`[X] FEDERAL: 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.
`
`
`
`I certify under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of
`America that the foregoing is true and correct.
`
`
`Executed on November 21, 2018, at San Juan Capistrano, California.
