I have personal knowledge of the facts contained in this declaration. If called as witness in this matter I would and could competently testify as follows: 2. Iam 58 years old. I lived at 1115 Taylor Street #4, San Francisco, CA 94108 for about 25 and half years. 3. My rent is $1080.00 per month. 4. T have a history of mental health disabilities, specifically depression. 5. I currently work for a temporary security agency, Placement Pros. I have sporadic employment as a security officer a few days a week. 6. In July 2012, my subtenant and I got into many disagreements, and as a result, my depression was triggered. I went to San Francisco General and was placed on a 72 hour evaluation for depression. I then checked into Progression Foundation, a mental illness treatment center, for -1- DECLARATION OF AARON WILLIAMSHolland & Knight LLP 50 California Street, 28th Floor San Francisco, CA 94111 Tel:(415) 743-6900 Fax:(415) 743-6910 Co eo NIN DHA FF WN | NY NY NY NY NNN DN | — ee Be we Be Be eB Se ot AA BF BNH KF SD OANA HA BF WN S&S SD approximately 3 weeks. In late August, I lived in Rippon House for 3 months. During the time I was not living at the premises neither myself nor the subtenant paid rent. I have lived at the subject premise since 1/1/1991. Mr.-Schulty moved in as my subtenant in 2007. Mr. Schulty pays me half of the rent. 7. Because the rent was not paid the plaintiff filed an eviction case in 2012. Mr. Schulty is not a named defendant. In October 2012, I went to a settlement and negotiation hearing with Hogan & Vest for non-payment of rent. A true and correct copy of this settlement agreement is attached as Exhibit A. We negotiated that I would be able to return to the subject premises as long as I paid $200.00 a month in addition to the current rent. 8. On Wednesday May 27, I received a phone call from David Foran of Sacramento and Foran Law offices, INC to be at SF Superior Court room 501 on Friday May 29. I asked if 1 would be receiving a letter. 9. I received the letter on Saturday. The letter said that the hearing was Monday, May 29, 2015. A true and correct copy of this letter is attached as Exhibit B. This confused me because May 29 is a Friday, not Monday. I went to room 501 on Friday, May 29 at 11:00 am for the hearing as indicated by David Foran. I walked into the room and did not see my name on the docket. I asked the sheriff's deputy if my name was on the docket. The sheriff deputy told me my name was not on the docket but to check room 402. I checked room 402 and asked the court clerk. No one at the court could find my name for a hearing on that day. I went to another department after 402 and no one could find my name for a hearing on that day either. After trying multiple times to locate the correct room, I decided to leave because I could not find anyone and I figured they got the date wrong. Also, I only met David Foran once three years ago at the settlement conference, so I tried looking for him but because I forgot what he looks like, I do not think I saw him. 10. After receiving the judgment against me, I went to the EDC on June 1, 2015, which referred me to the Homeless Advocacy Project (HAP). On June 8, 2015 I began seeking legal advice from HAP. HAP then referred me to Holland & Knight, where I am currently receiving pro bono representation for this matter. -2- DECLARATION OF AARON WILLIAMSCoe nN DH BF WN Se oe - 2 g_ 12 S23 ge) Sos $3 i4 SESEE 15 83 228 16 S223 235 7 g 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 11. The subtenant, Frank Schulty, has $3,497.50 in his bank account for the back rent, attorney fees, plus the months of May and June. I got this number by calculating the $777.50 that I still owe in back rent plus $500 in attorney's fees and $60 in cost mentioned in the judgment on May 29, 2015. A true and correct copy of that judgment is attached as Exhibit ©. The total also includes the May and June 2015 rental fee. 12. If evicted, I will be homeless. I do not have any place to go because my family resides in Florida. I will be unable to have a place to eat, keep my things, and live. 13. I can continue to pay my rent every month without any problem.
