Adding a little Spanish flair to the naming of the new $51 million elementary school, Hollister School District’s Board of Trustees decided on Rancho Santana Elementary School at its June 25 meeting. “While it’s not exactly one of the three names that were submitted by the (Citizens Advisory Committee), technically it is a form of the first choice. It’s just the Spanish pronunciation,” board president Stephen Kain said. “There is a bit of controversy in it, but I feel that we picked the name that was their first choice.” Among the 110 participants in an online survey for the school name and mascot, Santana Ranch came in first place. The K-5 school just east of the Hollister city limits is expected to be completed in January 2021. It will sit on a 12-acre parcel of land, purchased by

4-time champs! Robert Eliason
July 6, 2019 may be remembered as the finest day in Hollister Little League history: In District 9 championship games in Salinas, all four Hollister Little League teams won their respective championships in dominating fashion. The four teams combined to outscore their four opponents by a margin of 44-3—and no, that's not a typo. Three of the four teams advance to the Sectional Tournament (the district tourney is the final stop for the 9-and-under level). Hollister's four teams went a combined 17-0 and outscored their opponents by a margin of 198-17 in District 9 play, capping one of the greatest runs in the history of the tournament. The complete story is in Sports, P 11.

Farm cheers 90 years of apricots B&R FARMS INVITES THE PUBLIC TO U-PICK EVENT Erik Chalhoub Business Editor
Blenheim apricots, when compared to a typical variety, have a tangy-sweet taste that stands above all others. But the sweet, delicate fruit is disappearing, and has made it to Slow Food USA’s Endangered
Foods list. The Blenheim has a very thin skin and bruises easily, making it impossible to ship without being dried. Chances are high that apricot lovers have tried the variety in dried form. However, chances are very slim those same fans have actually picked their own Blenheim apricot fresh off the tree. That will change soon. To celebrate its 90th
anniversary, Hollister-based B&R Farms, California’s largest grower of Blenheim apricots, will hold a U-Pick event on July 13 from 9am to 3pm. The 150-acre family-owned orchard is now run by the third generation, Jim Rossi and his wife Mari, along with their son Brian. Two other sons, Phillip and Scott, also pitch in at the farm. The operation was started on
July 4, 1929 by Jim's grandparents, Frank and Mary Bozzo, who purchased a plot of land on what is now 5280 Fairview Road just outside of Hollister city limits. The farm originally grew prunes and walnuts, with a small plot of apricots. However, the Blenheim apricots soon took over more than 40 acres under ➝Apricots, 2

the stewardship of Jim’s parents, Emil and Elsie Rossi. There was a time in the 1980s when the farm was growing tomatoes, lettuce, broccoli and other vegetables, but eventually it returned to its roots and focused exclusively on the Blenheim apricot. Mari Rossi gets goosebumps just thinking about the family’s legacy. “Ninety years in business is absolutely heartwarming and overwhelming for our immediate family,” she said. Rossi praised the farm’s team, saying they consider them all part of the family. “Without them, we would not be able to do this,” she said. Rossi said the soil and climate in San Benito County is the perfect combination for growing the Blenheim variety. “With the coastal mornings and warm afternoons, the Blenheim really likes that,” she said. Orchard management and all dried apricot processing is performed by the Rossi family and staff at the Hollister facility. The farm employs 25 people annually, with that number jumping up to 50 during peak season. Two orchards have recently been planted,

bringing the number of trees on the property to an innumerable count. An orchard planted seven years ago is producing apricots, while the youngest is a year old and not yet producing. The trees themselves can produce for roughly 70 years, depending on how well they are taken care of, Rossi said. She added that all trees are watered through micro-sprinklers, saying the family is grateful to have wells on its property. Had that not been the case, the drought earlier this decade “would have been devastating,” she noted. Through its online store, B&R Farms ships its products not only across the nation but
internationally as well. It also has a physical store on its property that sells its various products, such as dried apricots, chocolate covered apricots, preserves, spreads, toppings, artisan apricot sorbet, apricot ice cream sandwiches and fresh frozen apricot puree. New products introduced this year, such as apricot ginger teriyaki, apricot pinot grigio wine spread and dark chocolate apricot bites, keep the customers coming back. “It’s all about the flavor,” she said. “You can’t find the flavor and the taste like the Blenheim apricot gives.” For more information, visit brfarms.com.
Be prepared for emergencies DO-IT-YOURSELF KIT CAN SAVE FAMILIES MONEY, AND THEIR LIVES Staff report
The stunning earthquakes in the Mojave Desert July 4 and 5 reminded many residents in the Santa Clara Valley of the massive fault lines that frame the valley. The Calaveras Fault snakes south from the Anderson Dam in Morgan Hill through Hollister, where it connects with the iconic San Andreas Fault— which splits San Juan Bautista—north of the Pinnacles. The events also reminded many families of the need to have a home emergency kit. The US Department of Homeland Security has published a handy checklist so people can build their own kits, which could be less expensive than prepackaged kits available online or in stores. Most of the items in
the DHS list are inexpensive and easy to find, and any one of them could save your life. Beyond the basics, DHS recommends you tailor your kits to unique needs your family might have, such as supplies for pets or seniors. After an emergency, you may need to survive on your own for several days. Being prepared means having your own food, water and other supplies to last for at least 72 hours. A disaster supplies kit is a collection of basic items your household may need in the event of an emergency.
The basics
To assemble your kit, store items in airtight plastic bags and put your entire disaster supplies kit in one or two easyto-carry containers such as plastic bins or a duffel bag. A basic emergency supply kit could include the following recommended items:
• One gallon of water per person per day for at least three days, for drinking and sanitation • At least a three-day supply of non-perishable food • Battery-powered or hand-crank radio and a NOAA Weather Radio with tone alert • Flashlight • First-aid kit • Extra batteries • Whistle to signal for help • Dust mask to help filter contaminated air and plastic sheeting and duct tape to shelter in place • Moist towelettes, garbage bags and plastic ties for personal sanitation • Wrench or pliers to turn off utilities • Manual can opener for food • Local maps • Cell phone with chargers and a backup battery For more information, visit https://www.ready. gov/build-a-kit.

A strong Baler year
W
ith the 2018-19 school year just completed at San Benito High School, it’s a good time to reflect on the many people and programs that make our school and district Baler Strong. All of our success is rooted in a support system for our students that includes faculty, staff, the administration, the board of trustees, parents and guardians, and our community.
Academic Excellence SBHS was recognized for excellence in various ways this year, from being named for the second straight year to the Educational Results Partnership Honor Roll for high achievement in student success to recognition on the U.S. News Best High Schools list. The school was awarded a full six-year accreditation by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and it is recognized by the Special Olympics as a Unified Champion School. We also want to thank our community for voting us as the Best Public High School in San Benito County in the recent “Best Of ” poll sponsored by the Hollister Free Lance. This year 650 Baler seniors earned diplomas, 103 of whom earned more than a combined $275,000 in scholarships. As noted in the school’s mission statement, which pledges to educate all students to their highest potential, members of the Class of 2019 are setting off on various paths, from the military to trade and technical schools to junior colleges and four-year universities or straight to the workforce. Our co-valedictorians are headed to MIT and UCLA, and our salutatorian will be attending Stanford. The senior class featured 197 Golden State Seal Merit Diploma qualifiers, a three-year high. These students demonstrated mastery of the high school curriculum in at least six subject areas, including English language arts, mathematics, science and US history. The October 2018 release of Advanced Placement data showed that SBHS students outperformed both the state and global passing rate averages for the second consecutive year in AP courses including English literature, European

history, US history, psychology, Spanish literature, studio art and French. More than a quarter of the approximately 3,000-student population was enrolled in at least one AP course in the 2018-19 school year, continuing a five-year trend in which enrollment in the 19 courses offered on campus has increased by 351 students. San Benito High School’s studentathletes, representing a quarter of the student body, performed well inside and outside the classroom, earning at or near a 3.0 grade point average in the fall, winter and spring seasons. More than 500 varsity student-athletes were named to an all-academic team this year.
New Facilities Thanks to the support of bond measures from voters in our community, campus construction and refurbishment continues this summer, with the stadium/aquatics center/softball field project nearing completion ahead of the Aug. 24 grand opening and alumni event at Andy Hardin Stadium. This past year, we were proud to open the 177,000-square-foot multi-use field, made possible through Measure U funding. The facility provides a safe surface that multiple sports and physical education classes can use throughout the year. The field also served as the site of this year’s graduation ceremony, which was attended by thousands. Work continues on the state-of-the-art Science and Robotics Building, which will feature 12 next-gen classrooms and a robotics facility. The building is scheduled to open by the second semester of this upcoming school year. Studio 205, the new on-campus game design and video production studio that will be used by students and staff to create videos, broadcasts, games and more, debuted in the spring, and the old campus pools were demolished and filled in to make way for a student pathway that will provide safe, convenient access across campus for students, faculty and staff each day. Shawn Tennenbaum is superintendent of the San Benito High School District.

The state budget package that Democratic legislators and Gov. Gavin Newsom just enacted is sprinkled with billions of dollars in extra goodies for their most important political constituency, labor unions. Take, for example, Senate Bill 90, the budget’s omnibus education measure. It would allocate $3.1 billion to reduce mandatory payments that local school districts would otherwise have to make to the State Teachers Retirement System (STRS) and the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS). CalPERS has been ramping up mandatory contributions from school districts and local governments to deal with tens of billions of dollars in unfunded pension liabilities. Former Gov. Jerry Brown and the Legislature rescued STRS from a similar situation by requiring that the state, teachers and school districts contribute more. By reducing those payments, the appropriations would put that much additional money on the table for school salary negotiations. It bails out districts, such as Los Angeles Unified, Oakland Unified and Sacramento Unified, that have dug deep financial holes by overspending and underwrites salary negotiations in other districts. Another budget trailer bill, Senate Bill 75, provides $36 million to help pay non-teaching school employees during summer vacations—in effect, extra pay for the unionized workers. SB 75 also allocates $10 million to create records on childcare workers, with the stated goal of making it easier for the Service Employees International Union or some other labor organization to organize them in the future. The state is pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into expanding early childhood education, and unions see the child care industry as ripe for unionization. It’s similar to what happened a couple of decades ago when workers who care for the elderly and disabled under the federal-state In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program were designated as employees who could be unionized. Speaking of which, still another budget trailer bill, Senate Bill 80, would impose financial penalties on counties that don’t reach a contract agreement with IHSS worker unions, thus giving them leverage in negotiations. The biggest labor bill of the year, however, is not attached to the budget. Assembly Bill 5 would lock into law a ruling by the state Supreme Court that several million workers who have been treated as contractors must become payroll employees with the attendant benefits and, of course, the potential to be unionized. Unions sought the ruling, saying that workers misclassified as contractors were being exploited, citing drivers for on-call transportation services such as Uber and Lyft as examples. The measure has touched off furious efforts by affected employers, and sometimes their contract workers, for exemptions but the author of AB 5, Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, has agreed to only a few. Gonzalez, a Democrat from San Diego and a former union official, moved the bill through the Assembly easily, but its fate in the state Senate is uncertain. That said, she has a powerful lever because if the Legislature doesn’t act, the Supreme Court’s threefactor test for who’s an employee and who’s not remains in effect. While a Legislature dominated by Democrats makes its bias for union organization quite obvious, there is one notable exception. Assembly Bill 969, also carried by Gonzalez, would allow the Legislature’s own workers to become union members. It didn’t even receive an initial hearing in the Assembly’s labor committee. It’s a stark example, not the first, of the Legislature’s penchant for imposing obligations on others while exempting itself. Dan Walters writes for CalMatters, a non-profit journalism project in Sacramento.

the district for $5 million, off Fairview and Sunnyslope Roads with an address of 1454 Santana Ranch Drive. The new school, which will be the district’s ninth elementary school, has five different funding sources, including two bonds ($36.2 million from Measure V and $3.4 million worth of Measure M) and nearly $10 million in developer fees. Santana Ranch, the same name as the new development that will feed children into the school, got 31 votes out of the 110 cast by community members, parents, staff and students in the online survey. Rounding out the top three were Fairview Elementary (17 votes) and Cindy Lubke Elementary (12 votes). “The No. 1 pick was Santana Ranch, and I personally thought it made the most sense,” Kain said. “But since we already have a school called Rancho San Justo, we agreed Rancho Santana sounded more appropriate for our school district.” Also at the June 25 meeting, the board announced it will leave it up to the new school’s staff and students to select the school mascot. “The kids are going to pick the mascot, but we will have final say although we will approve whatever name they pick,” Kain said. “I personally would’ve liked them to pick both” the school and mascot names. The online survey was available on the district website throughout the month of March. The Citizens Advisory Committee was comprised of former school board members Patricia Moore and Judi Johnson; teachers Cheryle Rio and Carol Gomez; retired school district employee Ceci Rodriguez; principal Monique Ruiz; Santana Ranch residents Bob Connolly and Alisa Collins. They met on March 14 and April 9 to review the survey results and present top choices to the board. The new site plans include four twostory buildings, with a pickup/dropoff area on Santana Ranch Drive and a fire lane dividing the academic buildings and common areas from the athletic fields and basketball courts.

Board approves budget DISTRICT TRIMS TEACHER COACHING PROGRAM, ASST. SUPERINTENDENT POST Scott Forstner Reporter
With a few modifications to its Local Control Accountability Plan, Hollister School District’s Board of Trustees ratified its budget for the upcoming 2019-20 school year. Total revenues for restricted and unrestricted funds were $62,276,550, while total expenditures were $63,693,750, according to the district’s budget presentation. State aid accounts for 49 percent of general fund revenues, with 25 percent generated from property tax and the rest with other local, state and federal revenues. The district’s Average Daily Attendance for the 2019-20 year is estimated at $5,370 per student. “In total, General Fund revenues are anticipated to be less than expenditures by $1.41 million (budget deficit),” according to the staff report. “It is not uncommon or cause for concern for a district to periodically deficit spend. This happens when the district receives money for a particular project or program in prior years then spends it in the current year.”
Even with that, the district is projected to maintain a $6.91 million general fund balance at the end of the 201920 year, according to the report. The total available for reserves is $6.24 million, which is 9.8 percent of budgeted expenditures. The Hollister District’s 10 schools (five TK-5 elementary schools, two TK-8 schools, two 6-8 middle schools, one 4-8 school) serve about 5,670 students, which includes 40 percent English Learners. Nearly half (49 percent) of unrestricted general fund expenditures pay certificated salaries (about $28 million) and 27 percent go toward employee benefits ($16.5 million) and 13 percent cover classified salaries ($9.5 million). The district employs more than 560 staff members. The district’s health benefits contribution for employees increased from $15,639 to $16,666 per fulltime employee or $16.5 million the 201920 year. “We’re good to go,” said Board President Stephen Kain of the district’s 201920 LCAP and budget. “We’re very positive about the future of Hollister School District. Our budget reflects the LCAP changes and we had quite a few. I’m very proud of both of them. I think we did a great job.”
Gone for the 2019-20 year is the district’s teacher coaching program, where the district pulled some of its top teachers from the classroom to work with colleagues to improve teaching methods and student outcomes. “We pulled exceptional teachers from the classroom to work with any teacher who wanted help and they worked wi th them to improve their teaching methods,” Kain said. “We decided that we weren’t seeing enough bang for our buck from that program.” Kain explained that by having less teachers in the classroom it also increased class sizes in Hollister. “We did away with the program,” said Kain, nothing that those teachers either returned to the classroom or transitioned into assistant principal positions in Hollister or elsewhere. Another major change was reorganization of the district office that included the elimination of the Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum position. Those duties were divided up among various other current employees, according to Kain. The first day of the 2019-20 school year for Hollister schools is Aug. 19.

also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien.

Hi-speed rail favors Pacheco Pass LACK OF MONEY DOESN’T STOP RR PLANNING Jaqueline McCool Reporter
Pacheco Pass
The portion of the HighSpeed Rail that will pass through Pacheco Pass will include embankments, viaducts and a tunnel. There will be a 1.5-mile tunnel near Casa De Fruta and a 13.5-mile tunnel through Pacheco Pass. “There would be a long tunnel around the northern arm of the San Luis Reservoir and viaducts over the California Aqueduct, DeltaMendota Canal, and I-5,” said the High-Speed Rail information packet. Tunneling through Pacheco is a major funding obstacle for the authority on a project that has never been fully funded and is currently under threat of losing all federal funding. The announcement of the recommendation July 2 does not guarantee this will be the final route for the High-Speed Rail through San Jose south to Gilroy. The authority will host several town hall meetings over the summer to hear from the community and the board will vote on the alternative at a Sept. 17 board meeting.
The Northern Californian portion of the route has never been fully funded. The authority has recently run into more funding trouble after the Federal Rail Administration sent a notice of funding withdrawal, which would cause the highspeed project to lose nearly a billion dollars. Submitted graphic
The California HighSpeed Rail Authority staff has made its selection for the preferred route for the bullet train; cutting straight through Morgan Hill’s downtown, a stop just south of Gilroy’s downtown and a tunnel through Pacheco Pass. The staff will recommend to the authority board that the train use the existing Union Pacific Railroad corridor from Morgan Hill through Gilroy. This alternative would electrify the tracks currently used by Caltrain. The plans call for no stop in Morgan Hill, but Northern California Regional Director for the authority, Boris Lipkin, said the newly electrified Caltrain tracks will benefit Morgan Hill. Electrifying the tracks will allow for more lower-speed commuter trains connecting San Jose, Morgan Hill and Gilroy, Lipkin said. Other options for the High-Speed Rail included viaducts that would run alongside US-101, bypassing both Morgan Hill and Gilroy’s downtown areas,
or creating a completely new track between Monterey Road and the Union Pacific Railroad tracks.
Morgan Hill
The Morgan Hill portion of the route, as recommended by authority staff, would pass through the existing tracks on Depot Street adjacent to Morgan Hill’s downtown. Lipkin said that this route would add two tracks to the existing rail lines. He said that in most places the plans fit within the existing space, but other portions of the route would need to be expanded out to accommodate. There would be platforms on each side of the tracks and gates on either side. In Morgan Hill, the areas surrounding the train tracks are densely populated; Lipkin said the new rail would avoid a new train-themed city park that is right next to the track on Depot Street. When the train passes through, two barricades

“Community Hub” like the one it wants to create just south of downtown Gilroy.
would come down to ensure traffic cannot pass. Despite coming through Morgan Hill’s downtown, Lipkin said, “Alternative 4 has the least impact when it comes to displacement.”
Gilroy
The recommended route for the High-Speed Rail in Gilroy will create a rail hub in the city just outside of downtown. Other alternative routes for Gilroy would have created a stop near the Gilroy outlets. A stop has always been planned for Gilroy. “The maximum train speed would be 110 mph where operations would be blended between San
Jose and Gilroy,” said the authority information sheet. “South and east of Gilroy, speeds would increase up to 220 mph in the dedicated HighSpeed Rail portion of the alignment.” The Gilroy hub is considered to be a major economic opportunity for the city. Lipkin said the authority is just working toward getting plans in place and will deal with funding challenges once construction is imminent. “There’s a number of years of work in front of us before we’re ready to issue the big construction contracts,” said Lipkin. After the authority board approves an alternative,
Lipkin said it will take about two years to obtain environmental clearances and advance the designs. Community meetings will be held this summer to collect feedback on the recommended route: Aug. 8 in Gilroy; Aug. 21 in Los Banos; Aug. 15 in San Jose; and a Sept. 17 board meeting in San Jose. According to the authority feedback can also be given by email at san. jose_merced@hsr.ca.gov, by phone at 800-455-8166, or by mail: Northern California Regional Office California High-Speed Rail Authority 100 Paseo De San Antonio, Suite 300 San Jose, CA 95113.

CELEBRATION The Hollister 11-and-under All Star team defeated Atlantic 9-1 in the District 9 championship game last Saturday in Salinas, part of Hollister’s spectacular day in which all four of its teams won District 9 titles. The 10s, 11s and 12s team advance to Section 5 Tournament play.

Robert Eliason
The Hollister Little League All Star teams went a perfect 4-0 in the District 9 championship games last Saturday in Salinas. Hollister’s 12-and-under group— the age group level that culminates with the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Penn. in late August—mauled the competition en route to the title, outscoring five opponents by a combined margin of 66-1. No, that’s not a typo. Hollister was that good, and with the exception of the 11-and-under team that had a pair of one-run nail-biters in the tournament, the majority of the games featured blowouts. The 11s squad defeated Atlantic 9-1 in its title game, the 10s team beat Soledad 8-1 and the 9s team whipped Hartnell 11-1 in the championship game. The 12s team dispatched Soledad 16-0 in its title contest, putting an exclamation point on what was perhaps the most dominant tournament run in District 9 history. Three of the four Hollister teams advance to the Section 5 Tournament (the 9-and-under level doesn’t go beyond District
play). Even though the 12s team made short work of its opponents, the players still had a blast. “The kids were very, very excited, and are looking forward to section,” 12s manager Hector Esparza said. “I believe this team has the potential to win the section, and that is our goal.” The 12s roster include Nathan Alves, Westin Alves, Gavyn Churchill, Jayden Corral, Benton Cross, Dominic Esparza, Andrew Gastelum, Alexander Hernandez, Robert Holsten, Daniel Martinez, Trenton Roach, Steven Salcedo and Jacob Sanchez. The 11s roster include Jacob Esparza, Brayden Barone, Anthony Bolin, Jordan Quezada, Jordan Slate, Jonathan Barnes, Kyian Rhodabarger, Danny Rubalcava, Marcus Vasquez, Ashlee Io, Kaden Rodriguez, Cruz Raquet and Isaiah Yniguez. The 10s roster include Ami Lopez, Reese Vidal, Joaquin Machado, Max Cunningham, Ryder Ward, Tyler Frisco, Tanner Frisco, Luke Mahler, Kody Dickens, Ben Candelaria, James Summers, Donavan Price and Enrique Rivas. The 9s roster was included in a previous article in the Free Lance, along with a story on the team. The 11s team won a pair of 5-4 games in the winners’ bracket quarterfinal and semifinals over Ferrasci and Atlantic, respectively, before pulling away from Atlantic in the championship game. Hollister did it by utilizing its tremendous speed and baserunning instincts. “We’re a fast team and able to take bases freely,” 11s

Hollister’s four teams went undefeated. manager Daniel Barone said. “We scratched off a couple of runs just by stealing bases.” Against Atlantic in the semifinals, Hollister was down to its final strike on two different occasions in the bottom of the sixth inning before prevailing in the seventh. Io had two strikes on her before drawing a walk and Jacob
Esparza was down to his last strike before producing a single, plating Io for the tying run. In the seventh, Barone and Quezada accounted for the winning run in helping lead the team to the title game. Rubalcava crushed a tworun triple, while Quezada delivered six innings of one-run ball in a dominating pitching
performance. Quezada needed just 58 pitches to get through five innings, a sign he was dealing. “The kids were so excited, and that’s why we as coaches do this,” Barone said. “We get to be a part of this and watch the joy they get out of playing this game, which brings us to back when we were a kid playing this game.”

DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 5/22/2017. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state will be held by the duly appointed trustee as shown below, of all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described below.

If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more
times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 280-2832 or visit this Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the file number assigned to this case 18-52213. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

The petition requests the decedent's will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. The PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: 8/2/2019 Time: 9:00 a.m. Dept: 13, Superior Court of California County of Santa Clara, 191 N. First Street, San Jose, California, 95113.

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.
