Humane Ending for San Gabriel
A Welcome Homefor JoJo!
By Sean TellesSan Gabriel, CA -- In a 4-1 ruling, the San Gabriel City Council voted to work with San Gabriel Valley Humane Society (SGVHS) in a 22 month contract, ruling against the city staff recommendation of Pasadena Humane Society - due in large part to commu-nity input. “Needless to say we are very happy to continue to serve the city we call home!” Pat Brayer, Executive Director.
From testimony on both sides, it seems years of a dysfunc-tional relationship between the former leadership of the SGVHS and a now defunct Joint Powers Authority (JPA) led to a bitter back-story: Former representatives of the
JPA - including Councilwom-an Juli Costanzo, who was on the JPA Executive Committee; Michael Burns, who was the Executive Director/Consultant of the JPA; and Tom Marston, the city's Finance Director who was the Treasurer of the JPA and on the Administra-tion Committee of the JPA - seemed to accuse the SGVHS of financial mismanagement, while SGVHS maintains their finances are disclosed – in-cluding online documents
at the non-profit watchdog website guidestar.org. It might have felt like the Twilight Zone for anyone fol-lowing this case closely. For the second time this summer the council chambers were

jam-packed and tension was in the air. About 60 days after many community members pleaded with Councilmembers to contract with the SGVHS, the arguments were being repeated: SGVHS is a local business, SGVHS is historic, SGVHS is listed on your website as a top-location in the city, SGVHS is where I adopted my dogs from and where I find them when they get loose. After a testimonial speech given by SGVHS veterinarian Frank Bossong, he asked the question most were wonder-ing, “We have your name. Why are we here?”City staff cited their main reasons for their Pasadena recommendation as having positive references and a savings of 15k a year. During the meeting Councilmember Harrington questioned that idea, “We are the references.” Many questioned the math as well, pointing out that Pasade-na Humane Society would be keeping the all the licensing fees while SGVHS would be
sharing half of their licensing fees with the city. One universally appealing outcome of the new contract is direct communication and accountability between the City and humane society that can now negotiate without passing information through the JPA-middleman. As a result, San Gabriel residents will no longer be told to call the police when a stray animal is spotted roaming the streets, as the SGVHS now has the ability to manage its own protocol.The city staff committee was made up of Finance Director Tom Marsden, Police Chief David Lawton, City Accoun-tant Linda Tang, and Animal Consultants Inc. President Michael Burns, as well as Councilmembers appointed to the committee by Mayor Sawkins: John Harrison and Juli Casatanzo. In addition to the Mid Val-ley News, the evening was covered by the Pasadena Star News and ABC 7.
nation Aggie represented the latino community as a special Mom, supporting her children in all their activities and most especially, sports.
Aggie and her sons, Gabriel and Julian, became as well known or even better known than our local competing Olympic athletes, as their commercial/documentary video trailer aired during the entire three weeks of Olympic coverge on Telemundo.
Aggie, an alumn of Moun-tain View High School, works as a Head Start Health Clerk for the Mountain View School District. She is a single Mom who two years ago called into a Spanish rock radio station to try to win tickets to Disney-land. The dee-jay she spoke to got interested in her story of being a single mom and being so active in her son's sports activities. He asked if he could view her Facebook
page. A while later he con-tacted her and let her know that he had referred her name to someone who was looking to interview a "Sports Mom" for a story. Aggie had no idea what this interview would lead to.
Last May 10 Aggie was informed that she and her boys had been selected to do the commercial/video, but had no idea at the time what a huge audience it would reach and of what impact it would have on their lives. "We didn't know our commercial/video was for the "Thank you Mom" campaign that would air dur-ing the Olympics, until it was done and they sent me the link. I was in tears it was such a great honor." said Aggie. "I thought it was to promote kids in sports since my Son is very active in many sports; It was Procter & Gamble's
way of thanking me world wide for being a supportive Mother to someone who could be Tomorrow's Champion Olympian."
Since appearing in the com-mercial/video it has opened up doors for Aggie and her two sons. They have been contacted for casting calls and other projects.

Aggie and her sons are great representatives of the wealth of active, and involved people who come from and contrib-ute to our community in an outstanding way.

The event coincided with the City of South El Monte’s free Concerts in the Park se-ries at Mary Van Dyke Park.

On Saturday, I went to the mall to support the City, Chamber, and School Dis-tricts with their Resource Fair. It was such a joy to see all of the faces of the students who received backpacks, school supplies and even socks. They also received discounts for some of the stores on the mall. The lines
never got thin and they hand-ed out 800 snow cones which everyone enjoyed . Although it was a hot day, the volun-teers were out there for the children in our community. I saw Councilwomen, Vicky Martinez there working hard and was told she spent the whole day there. It was great to see the mall busy. Thanks to all who put this together and worked so hard.

Cal-American Water Main Relocation Project in Duarte Aug. 15-Oct. 1
Duarte, CA -- California-American Water has begun a water main relocation project in the City of Duarte required by the Foothill Transit Au-thority for the extension of the Metro Gold Line commuter rail line. Work will be going on intermittently from Aug. 15 to Oct. 1 to construct a 12-inch water main along Duarte Rd. between Highland Ave. and Mountain Ave.
Traffic control and lane closures are planned to occur during construction between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. As work proceeds construc-tion activities may require extended traffic control and lane closure hours, according
to Operations Manager, Garry Hofer.
"The new water main is an important part of Duarte's water system and will provide a reliable, safe and efficient water supply for years to come," said Hofer.
California-American Water is working with the City of Duarte, City of Monrovia, the Foothill Transit Authority and the Foothill Transit Contrac-tors on the project.
For additional information, contact: Hofer at California-American Water (626) 614-2510 or Teresa Renteria, assistant civil engineer, City of Duarte at (626) 357-7931, ext. 234.

By Ken RauschExecutive Director
IT IS ALL ABOUT THE KIDS!!
The El Monte/South El Monte Chamber of Com-merce and the Downtown El Monte Business Association (DEMBA) had the opportu-nity to be a part of a very spe-cial event last Saturday. The Back to School Resource Fair was held and treated about 850 kids to FREE haircuts, school supplies, socks, shoes and other needed items. The Fair’s creation was the idea of El Monte Councilwoman Victoria “Vicky” Martinez

who also served as the event’s Chairperson. This was the second year for the event, however, this year’s Fair catered to over 5 times the amount of schoolchildren.
While the Chamber and DEMBA are constantly work-ing in the business commu-nity, the Fair offered a unique way to bring the businesses together with the families of El Monte and South El Monte. The Fair was spon-sored by the City of El Monte, El Monte Kiwanis, Chamber of Commerce and DEMBA in partnership with the El Monte and Mountain View School Districts. The Fair was 100% funded from hard-working volunteers and corporate donations, which is a huge feat in itself. This truly demonstrates the commitment of the City of El Monte and our business community to be there for our kids.
Many merchants on the Valley Mall joined in the generosity for the kids by of-fering FREE school supplies at their stores and enjoyed the increase in foot traffic on this Saturday afternoon. The Fair also coincided with the Back to School Sidewalk Sale on Valley Mall that was also being held last weekend. A special thank you goes to the Professional Institute of Beauty on Valley Mall that of-fered the schoolchildren about 300 FREE haircuts.
In closing this edition of Nichols’ Worth, the staff (Denise, Sheila and myself) at your Chamber of Commerce will continue to partner with future events such as the Back to School Resource Fair. We are proud to be an active par-ticipant in our community.

City Maintenance Supervi-sor with the City of Alham-bra. Sanchez is survived by his son, Albert Jr., and five grandchildren. His warm smile and engaging personal-ity will be missed by his many friends and family members.. . Mark Your Calendars….. On Saturday September 29, Savannah Cemetery will be sponsoring a Summer Craft Fair at the Moose Lodge adjacent to the cemetery at Mission Dr. and Valley Bou-levard. In addition to seasonal art and craft items, food will be offered, raffle tickets will be sold and tours of the cemetery will be available. Part of the raised donations will go towards the Savannah Cemetery general fund. … Pothole Report No. 2012-05… Wells Avenue, between Ramona Avenue and Manley Avenue, was examined for this report and surprisingly the street was in good shape. The paving was 2-3 years old and very few cracks and pot-holes were observed. By far this was the best conditioned road examined in this series and does not need any work. Rating: (5) – no work needed. What surprises me is that this street does not nearly have the traffic volume of Mission Drive or other reported streets and yet recent work had been completed. You sometimes have to wonder who selects which streets get scheduled for repair. … Mission Fi-esta…. Don’t forget the San Gabriel Mission Fiesta August 31 – September 2. Food, en-tertainment, rides and music will be offered for the 3-day event. Come on out and celebrate the Mission’s 241st birthday ….
Rosemead Restaurants … Congratulations to Rosemead City Manager Jeff Allred for bringing in some new restau-rants into the city. Chipotle Mexican Grill, TGIF Friday and The Olive Garden will be adding new locations at vari-ous spots throughout the city. A mix of the more popular national franchise outlets with local food favorites will make Rosemead a destination for those wanting more variety. Other well-known eateries already located in the city include Denny’s, Carrows, IHOP, Carl’s, McDonald’s and Starbucks…. Pothole Update…. A reader of this column recently provided me with a San Gabriel pothole update. It appears that street repair crews were spotted fil-ing in potholes on Broadway Avenue in front of San Gabriel Mission High School. Being the investigative reporter that I am, I had to check it out for myself. Yes indeed it appears that some sort of asphalt patching had taken place. Nice, square replacement patches were observed along Broadway from Santa Anita Avenue to Junipero Serra Avenue. In addition, some tar patching was also applied to a series of cracks along Broad-way. Even though it looks like a large Richter scale, the zig-zag design is a smoother ride than the cracks which were previously in place…. Albert Sanchez … Long-time San Gabriel resident Albert San-chez, passed away last week from internal complications. Sanchez was a graduate from San Gabriel High School, coached and managed in the San Gabriel American Little League, and was a retired

Reception for Support for
Jason Pu for SG City Council
San Gabriel, CA - Over 50 community members attended a reception at Raya Insur-ance in San Gabriel’s Mission District in support of Jason Pu for San Gabriel City Council 2013. Assemblyman Mike Eng provided a very personal and rousing introduction for Mr. Pu and long-time San Gabriel resident and business leader Jeanne Raya hosted the event.
“As a candidate for San Gabriel City Council, it is important to listen to and exchange ideas with our residents and community leaders,” said Jason Pu. The community members present showed strong support for his platform of the 3 E’s: The Economy, Education and Eth-ics, and were engaged with Mr. Pu in exchanging ideas on improvements for the City.
In his prepared remarks, Mr. Pu said, “I’m running for San Gabriel City Council because I want to ensure that my daughter Sophia can grow up in a more open, prosper-ous and vibrant City, and, in the process, I would hope that we can continue to improve the quality of life here for all of us.” Noting that he would share many specific ideas during the campaign and that he hoped to continue listen-ing and learning from San Gabriel’s diverse constituents, he ended with the following: “As we celebrate our Centen-nial and a new century for our City, I hope we will also be celebrating a new era with new ideas, new energy and new leadership for the future of San Gabriel.”
Mr Pu looks forward to an open and clean campaign process and to engaging San Gabriel’s residents and busi-ness owners to foster commu-nication and collaboration in our community.

As technology evolves, so do the ways children learn in and out of the classroom. With constantly changing tools and trends, teachers can do more to stay up-to-date to help children thrive. It is important that parents understand what these changes mean so their children can maintain a competitive edge.
Here are some new trends in education that every parent should know about:
• More collaboration: If you think Facebook is all gos-sip and games, think again. Many teachers are drawing upon social media’s natural collaborative element and ability to connect the class-room and home. In fact, some innovative teachers are using sites like Pinterest, Skype, Facebook and Twitter in a controlled, supervised way to make classroom materials more accessible and encour-age conversation.
• Learning from each other: Since technology can change so rapidly, it’s important that teachers share best practices by word of mouth. The new-est social platform, Edmodo, built the first whole network of K-12 users and connects teachers with other teachers as well as parents, students and third-parties. Edmodo mem-bers can swap ideas, share les-son plans and manage grades in a secure network acces-sible from school computers. With more than eight million users across 60,000 different schools, the possibilities are endless.
• New tools: New technologies, such as tablets and e-readers, are helping students learn. These smaller devices offer students advantages over traditional computers, through interactive ca-pabilities that bring lessons to life and enhanced images, video and audio. Tablets also have practical advan-

Making Snack Time HealthierParents often struggle to get their children to forgo un-healthy snacks in favor of healthy options. With nearly a third of kids and teens over-weight, childhood obesity is now a top health concern among parents in the United States, according to the American Heart Association.Healthy snacks are just as important for kids as healthy meals, as a nutritious lunch can easily be offset by the empty calories of junk food snacks.
“At school, kids will be tempted with all sorts of un-healthy snacks while you’re not around,” says Edmond Sanctis, co-founder of Sahale Snacks, a producer of healthy, all-natural snack foods. “But once kids get into a healthier eating routine, they’ll take those habits with them wher-ever they go.”Even if your children scoff at carrot sticks and reach for the cookies instead, there are simple ways to motivate them to snack better.
Be a Role ModelEating habits start at a young age and are strongly influ-enced by parents. If you chow down on chips or candy in between meals, your child will learn to do the same. Eat healthy snacks in front of your kids.
Clean the PantryThe easiest way to get your child to stop eating highly processed junk food is to stop supplying it. Replace chips with natural snacks that are just as easy to grab on the go.
Opt for snacks low in satu-rated fat and high in nutrition. For example, Sahale Crunch-ers are fruit and almond snacks that rely on nature and not artificial flavors for their taste. Stock up on a variety of flavors such as Almonds with Cherries, Apples + Maple and Almonds with Cranber-ries, Sesame Seeds + Honey so that even the pickiest kids won’t miss junk food. Serving sizes are 140 calories or less,
so they’ll be snacking better too.
Get CreativeHealthy snacks don’t have to be bland. Make healthy snack-ing more delicious by add-ing nuts or granola to yogurt to give it an added boost of protein, fiber, healthy mono-unsaturated fats, vitamins, nutrients and antioxidants. Or make veggies more appealing by pairing them with dips like salsa and hummus.
Don’t Give UpYour kids may complain at first, but stay strong. Once their taste buds get used to the new foods, they won’t miss the junk food at all. For more healthy snacking tips, visit www.sahalesnacks.com.
With some direction and a little creativity, healthy snack-ing will become second nature to your child.

tages such as “instant on,” all-day battery life, no cords and are often more cost-effective than ordering new text books each year.
• Adding more fun: Accord-ing to Open College, teachers who integrated digital games into lessons saw an increase in average test scores when compared to traditional, non-digital games. By making learning fun, you can get kids excited to learn just about anything and get some laughs along the way.
• Turn it off: In this digital era, it is also important to make sure students have the time to unplug. Not only does time outside offer children opportunities to get necessary exercise, but a 2009 Yeshiva University study found that children who have more re-cess time behave better in the classroom and are likelier to learn more.
So how can parents make sure schools have plans to fund programming that supports these new

El Monte's Back to School Resource Fair has grown
By Ken RauschEl Monte, CA -- The Back to School Resource Fair was held on Saturday and treated about 850 kids to FREE haircuts, school supplies, socks, shoes and other needed items. The Fair’s creation was the idea of El Monte Councilwoman Victoria “Vicky” Martinez who also served as the event’s Chairperson. This was the second year for the event, however, this year’s Fair catered to over 5 times the amount of schoolchildren.The Fair was sponsored by the City of El Monte, El Monte Kiwanis, Chamber of Commerce and DEMBA in partnership with the El Monte and Mountain View School Districts. The event was 100% funded from hard-working volunteers and corporate donations and demonstrates the com-mitment of the City of El Monte and our business community to be there for our kids.

“Sounds like somebody has a case of the Moondays...” ---OfficeSpaceIf the Dodgers feel like throw-ing around some money, I have a few directions to offer them to throw in. Magic, call me.A prominent area coach called me on Sunday night and said that anyone saying Arcadia HC Chris Long doesn’t know what he’s doing, doesn’t know football. He went on to describe the Apaches loss to Rio Hondo Prep as the perfect storm of transition, injury, and an underrated opponent that everyone finally knows about.Next Add Dodgers: Yes, it was nice that Adrian Gonzalez homered in his first at-bat...But so did Jose Offerman.Note to Sportswriters/Apolo-gies to Los Altos HC Dale Ziola and Arroyo HC Jim Singiser: Never attempt to record an interview with a new APP on you IPhone that you haven’t become familiar with yourself...I pushed the wrong button before getting back to the office and lost both interviews.I know Peyton Manning has looked real good in preseason for the Denver Broncos, but don’t you think John Elway should have a better back up plan than Caleb Hannie? I mean ask the Chicago Bears how Hannie worked out after Jay Cutler went down in 2011.Hannie was so effective Da Bears had to reach down into the high school coaching ranks for a passer.It is a shame (guilty) that Rio Hondo Prep gets more credit and attention for beating a down Arcadia team than for going 13-1 last year and win-ning a CIF championship. Time for local media to make amends.Former M-Town receiver Luke Williams is playing at UC Davis.They are happy down at Gabrielino these days...feeling good.Victor Ambruso became the third coach in Mt. View history to win his first game (10-6 over Alhambra) lead-ing the Vikings, and the first since Bill Thompson in 1991. In 1986 Joe Dankert on his first game as HC, and both Thompson and Dankert picked their victories against Pasadena Marshall.Dyran Adams is now play-ing receiver for the Duarte Falcons, D-I linebacking prospect Denzel Talifero is running the show now at quarterback.Last Note Duarte: Talik Ma-son could be on the verge of a special season.Last Note Dodgers: If indeed they’re going to spend all this money can they at least start picking up a few wins?James Loney grounded into a double play in his first at-bat for the Boston Red Sox.Contact joe at [email protected]

El Monte Prevails Over Baldwin Park, 44-41By Rich WhittingtonEl Monte, CA - Baldwin Park fell to El Monte 44-41 Friday night at Lions Stadium in large part because of them-selves…And five touchown passes by Brandon Martinez.The Braves were hit with a pass interference penalty with 4:07 remaining in the game keeping Lions “go ahead” drive alive and on a fumble at the 1:56 mark, which was recovered by El Monte’s Bradley Berling, to seal things for the home team.The Lions, contenders for this year’s Mission Valley League title, were forced to rally from a 41-30 deficit late in the con-test with an offense that lived up to expectations.Martinez connected on five touchdown passes. The scor-ing strikes, measuring 59, 47, 45, 23, and 22 yards respec-
tively, were caught by Abel Barrajas (catches of 47 and 22 yards), Josh Wu (59 yards), Adolfo Sanchez (45 yards), and Josh Morales (23 yards). Additionally, Senior Running Back Bryan Luevano added a 3 yard scoring run, which aided in propelling the Lions to victory.Much of Baldwin Park’s suc-cess was thanks to the excel-lent play of junior quarterback Michael Moran, who threw for two touchdowns and ran for one more. Moran’s scoring strikes were to junior wide out Julio Tinajero (21-yards), and to sophomore Receiver Hec-tor Moran (4-yards). Rushing touchdowns were contrib-uted by Moran (1-0yard), Sophomore Niko Carravantes (33-yards), Senior Raymond Calzada (6-yards), and Junior Tim Wells (2-yards).

Los Altos Derails Knight Train
By Joe TorosianHacienda Heights, CA - If the concern was Los Altos didn’t have anything coming back from last year’s semifi-nal squad, it was put to bed on the opening kick Friday night in the Conquerors 33-6 victory over Arroyo.Estaurdo Marcos fielded the game starter at his own seven and returned it 74-yards to the Knights 19. Four plays later Matt Hayashi struck paydirt from a yard out and it was 7-0 home team.By the start of the second quarter it was 21-0 in favor of the home team. Los Altos
began the contest with its first three positions starting at the Arroyo 19, 40, and 35.Marcos added a 36-yard scor-ing run with seven minutes to play in the first. On the Conquerors fourth posses-sion, which started at its own 25, Christian Hacegaba hit Christian Palacios on a bubble screen that went 50-yards for a 21-0 lead.The Knights first four posses-sions ended with four punts and one first down.

Duarte Runs Over Marshall, 46-0
Gabrielino Passes by Sherman Oaks in Opener
By Joe TorosianPasadena, CA- Denzel Talifero started at quarterback and the Duarte Falcons behind the electrifying running of Talik Mason and Marcus Lewis jumped out early on the Marshall Eagles to take a 46-0 victory in the season opener for both schools.Talifero and Mason scored early and often, along with Lewis, to give Jason Martin a victory in his first game as Duarte head coach.The contest was played on campus at Marshall High School, but started at 4:PM because there are no lights for the on cam-pus field.
Denzel Talifero made his debut for the Duarte Fal-cons…playing quarterback.
By Carson PowersSan Gabriel, CA - Sophomore quarterback Elijah Peters threw two touchdown passes to Cameryn Matthews in the first quarter to spark the Eagles to a 14-7 victory over Sherman Oaks RES.With 6:18 to play in the first quarter Peters floated 5-yard pass to Matthews in the end zone for the game’s first score.Four minutes later Peters hit Matthews on a corner pattern for a score that covered 20-yards.

You can use all the cliches. It was a game that had a little bit of everything. It's a shame some-body had to lose. Both teams left everything on the field. They showed a lot of heart. It was what high school football is all about. But in the case of the Smudgepot game last Thursday night between San Dimas and Bonita they might all have been true. It was all San Dimas, then all Bonita,and in the end again San Dimas. The game featured several great plays, but also an equal amount of key mistakes. There were 10 touchdowns, two two point conversions, a missed two point conversion, a safety, an interception, a fumble and a couple of injuries. It had agony and frustration but also ecstasy and jubilation. There wasn't just one hero, there were several. For San Dimas Andrew Espinoza ran for the game winning touchdown, and Austin Hill recovered the fumble that led to the game winner. Jake Payton rushed for three touch-downs and over 150 yards and Cody McNeal had five catches for over 100 yards.Also there was sophomore Erick Ware who booted four extra points including the deciding one. But without any of them the Saints wouldn't have been hold-ing the trophy at he end. For Bonita Victor Magallanes made receptions that would have made Jerry Rice proud and had a pair of touchdown catches and Tanner Diebold threw three TD strikes. People want to lay the loss at the feet of Reggie Turner for his late fumble but the truth is, Bonita would not have been in the posi-tion to win the game had it not been for Turner. When the Bearcats were down 30-8 in the second quarter, I turned to photographer Duane Barker and mentioned that Turner only had four carries. “Yeah I know, when are they go-ing to start giving him the ball?” he replied. Bonita Coach Adrian Medrano must have been thinking the same thing. Turner started getting the ball. And when Turner started getting the ball, the momentum shifted to the green and white. Turner had carries of 15, 27, 16 and 25, and also had an eight yard reception for a score. By the
time the night was finished he had rushed for 118 yards and a touchdown. He left the game just before the end of the third quarter with leg cramps and returned late in the fourth with the Bearcats hav-ing just stopped San Dimas on a fourth and one. He got popped on his first carry and the ball bounced loose. Should he have been in the game? A better ques-tion would be how can you leave your best back be on the bench with the game on the line? The best players get the ball when it matters and although there are many successes there is also the occasional failure. They get the praise when they win and the blame when they lose. Turner shouldn't be blamed but instead praised for keeping Bonita in the game. It was the type of game where one key mistake, turnover, or penalty, would make the differ-ence in the game. “They made one more mistake than we did. That's all.” said San Dimas Coach Bill Zernickow. The Saints jumped out to a 22 point lead only to see Bonita run off 30 straight points to grab it back. Espinoza's run and Ware's boot put the Saints in front. The Bearcats had one last shot but Brandt Davis' 49 yard field goal kick fell short. San Dimas leaped in celebration while hearts sunk on the Bonita side. It was everything I hoped for and more, an instant classic. It was also the first game of the season. That's my principle. Tim can be reached at [email protected].

Trevor Virnala.The Arroyo offense did find a little traction in the second half and Peter Aholoka, 15 carries for 134 yards, did score on a 17-yard run in the third but it did little to offset the disastrous start.Marcos, 11 carries, 84 yards, bookended things with a 30-yard run to close the scoring in the fourth.Hayashi finished the game with 105 yards on 20 carries. Through the air Hacegaba went a productive 7 of 15 for 120 yards with a touchdown and a pic.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF FRANK A. URIBE
Case No. KP014832 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of FRANK A. URIBE. A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by DAVID URIBE, in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that DAVID URIBE, be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. THE PETITION requests the decedent’s lost 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 on November 21, 2012 at 8:30 AM in Dept. A and located at 400 Civic Center Plaza Pomona CA 91766. IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the deceased, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within four months from the date of first issuance of letters as provided in Probate Code section 9100. The time for filing claims will not expire before four months from the hearing date noticed above. 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. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
