Defendant
I, RAYMOND J. LEE, ESQ., declare as follows:
1. lam an attorney duly licensed to practice before the bar of this court and an
attorney with the firm of Zwicker & Associates, P.C. If called upon to do so, I could and
would competently testify to the matters as set forth herein, as such matters are of my own
personal knowledge or of good information and belief.
2. My client, TARGET NATIONAL BANK is a not a California corporation with
no presence in the State of California. The instant action, although falling within the
jurisdictional limits of small claims court, could not have been filed by TARGET NATIONAL
BANK, except by and through an attorney located within the state. As such, the action could

DECLARATION PURSUANT TO CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SEC. 1033not have been pursued by counsel in small claims and thus was filed as a Limited Civil action.
Having taken the default of defendant, plaintiff is the prevailing party and thus is entitled to
reasonable attorney’s fees, and actual
costs of filing and service under California Code of Civil Procedure §§1032(b), 1033.
3. As TARGET NATIONAL BANK has sued upon a book account and is the
prevailing party thereto, they are entitled to attorneys and court costs. Demand was made upon
defendant on or about 8/10/2011, indicating that if the action were to proceed to litigation,
defendant would be held liable for costs and attorney’s fees. Despite Plaintiff's diligent efforts,
this letter cannot be located.
4. As such, Plaintiff respectfully requests that the above entitled Court award
attorney’s fees and costs when awarding judgment in this matter. However, Plaintiff is willing
to waive any fees and costs which the Court feels they are not entitled to by law in order to
have judgment entered on the principal amount hereto.
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the
5-612
foregoing is true and correct.
Executed on , at Pasadena, California,
