It is possible that at  the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due.    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 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this  internet website, www.auction.com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file  number assigned to this case, T.S.# 23-06218CA. 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 website. The best way to verify postponement information is to  attend the scheduled sale.    NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction  pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an "eligible tenant buyer," you can  purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an  "eligible bidder," you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed  at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the  date of the trustee sale, you can call  (800) 280-2832, or visit this internet website www.auction.com, using  the file number assigned to this case 23-06218CA to find the date on which the trustee's sale was held,  the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written  notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee's sale.  Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale.  If you think you may qualify as an "eligible tenant buyer" or "eligible bidder," you should consider  contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this  potential right to purchase.     3 File No.:23-06218CA    If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole and exclusive  remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further  recourse.    For Pre Sale Information Log On To: www.auction.com or Call: (800) 280-2832.  For Post Sale Results please visit www.affiniadefault.com or Call (866) 932-0360      Dated: March 19, 2026    By: Carlos Quezada    Foreclosure Associate  Affinia Default Services, LLC  301 E.

A Petition for Probate has been filed by Fresno County Public Administrator in the Superior Court of California, County of FRESNO.
The Petition for Probate requests that Fresno County Public Administrator be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

(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:
April 27, 2026, 9:00 A.M., Dept.: 402

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 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. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
