Obama And Congress Give One More Push
For Immigration Reform
His agenda tattered by last
year’s confrontations and
missteps, President Barack
Obama begins 2014 clinging
to the hope of winning a lasting legislative achievement: an
overhaul of immigration laws.
THE SECRET WORLD
OF ESPIONAGE
WEST COAST PREMIERE
SUMMARY
It will require a deft and careful
use of his powers, combining
a public campaign in the face
of protests over his administration’s record number of deportations with quiet, behind-thescenes outreach to Congress,
something seen by lawmakers
and immigration advocates as
a major White House weakness.
In recent weeks, both Obama and
House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio, have sent signals that raised
expectations among overhaul supporters that 2014 could still yield
the first comprehensive change in
immigration laws in nearly three
decades. If successful, it would
fulfill an Obama promise many Latinos say is overdue.
The Senate last year passed a
bipartisan bill that was comprehensive in scope that addressed
border security, provided enforcement measures and offered a path
to citizenship for 11 million immigrants in the United States illegally. House leaders, pressed by tea
party conservatives, demanded a
more limited and piecemeal approach.

Indicating a possible opening,
Obama has stopped insisting the
House pass the Senate version.
And two days after calling Boehner to wish him happy birthday in
November, Obama made it clear
he could accept the House’s billby-bill approach, with one caveat:
In the end, “we’re going to have to
do it all.”
Boehner, for his part, in December
hired Rebecca Tallent, a former
top aide to Sen. John McCain and
most recently the director of a bipartisan think tank’s immigration
task force. Even opponents of a
broad immigration overhaul saw
Tallent’s selection as a sign legislation had suddenly become more
likely. Boehner also fed speculation he would ignore tea party
pressure, bluntly brushing back
their criticism of December’s modest budget agreement.
“The question is what are the
core things that Republicans can’t
move away from, what are the
core things that Democrats can’t
walk away from,” said Republican
pollster David Winston, who regularly consults with the House leadership. “You may have preferences
and then you may have core elements. That’s part of the process
of going back and forth.”
If successful, an immigration compromise could restore some luster
to Obama’s agenda, tarnished in
2013 by failures on gun legislation,
bipartisan pushback on his efforts
to take military action against Syria
and the disastrous enrollment start
for his health care law.

Eva Longoria - Actress, Businesswoman,
Stunner - Named ‘Maxim’s Woman Of The Year’
Eva Longoria always looks hot and
sporting only a white tank top, the
Latina bombshell sizzles as she
graces the cover “Maxim’s” January/February issue, in which she is
named “Woman of The Year.”
“It’s especially awesome after how
long it’s been since my first cover
[in 2005],” Longoria told the magazine.
The 38-year-old has become wellknown for her screen roles, but
has truly become a source of inspiration and an icon in the Latino
community for her work as a producer, businesswoman and philanthropist. “Maxim” took notice.
“I’ve had a beautiful relationship
with ‘Maxim’ over all these years,”
the former “Desperate Housewives” actress said. “When someone sees the cover of this issue,
they’re going to say, ‘Que rico!’”
The unbelievably busy Longoria
had just presented her thesis for a
master’s degree in Chicano studies at Cal State Northridge when
the interview with the magazine
happened.
“I was like, ‘My
brain can’t jump
that fast from a
‘Maxim’ interview
to a thesis!’” she
said, explaining
why she had to
reschedule the
interview. “Back
in high school
I really was the
chameleon, too.
I got along with
the honors math
club, then I would
go to cheerleading
practice,
and then I was
a band geek as
well.”
So what does
Longoria do to
unwind? She hits the kitchen.
“One thing people are usually surprised about when they get to know
me is how domestic I am,” she told
the magazine. “So when you see
the sexy ‘Maxim’ cover and then
you put it against me in an apron
with flour in my hair, it takes a moment to reconcile that image.”
The issue hits the stands Jan. 17.

Humetewa, a member of the Hopi tribe and former U.S. attorney in Arizona, has been nominated to serve on the U.S. District Court for the district of Arizona as a federal judge. If confirmed, she would be the first active member of a Native American reservation, and first Native American woman to serve as a federal judge. Not only would this bring more diversity to the federal bench, but Arizona’s prominent Native community will finally be represented in a state that is infamous for ignoring Native issues. This is a big deal because she is a Native woman from the same Arizona that has become a police state through its insistence on criminalizing communities of color, deportations, and via renegade leaders like Sheriff Arpaio. Arizona is swiftly becoming a state known for its extreme racial profiling regarding folks who look “brown.” In Obama’s first term he nominated Arvo Mikkanen of the Kiowa Tribe, but Republicans blocked the nomination. CCN International Jazz Sensation “Jimena Bautista” Swings With The United Nations Across The Border By Nathan James I was singing before I started speaking”, says Jimena Bautista, a young jazz vocalist from Mexico who has been enthralling international audiences with her unique sounds and style, “when I was 2, my family already had recordings of me. I was completely amazed and dazzled by Michael Jackson’s Beat It.” With the knowledge that music was her passion, even at that early age, Jimena’s path was set out before her. Born in Mexico City and raised in Cancun, it soon became clear that Jimena had inherited the talent that ran in her family. Her father, who played with the notable pop band Mister Loco, won accolades such as “World’s Most Popular Song” at the Yamaha contest in Tokyo during 1975, for Lucky Man. Following her education at a British private school, where she became bilingual, Jimena was eager to follow in his footsteps. “By the time I was 13 or 14, it was a different world for me. When I first heard Manhattan Transfer, I knew I wanted to do jazz,” she recalls. “I was also inspired by Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington’s orchestra. This is how I got started in the music industry--it was a little difficult for me at the beginning.” Jimena persevered, and soon met the legendary George Duke, who became her mentor. “I met George Duke in 2003, at the Riviera Maya Jazz Festival. I was walking in the street and recognized him, and asked him where he was going to sing,” Jimena says. “He invited me to sing with him, live, and I was like, ‘Are you sure you want me to sing with you tonight?” Following that improvisational performance, Jimena’s career began to roll. She performed in such diverse locales as the Caribbean, Canada, Mexico, and recorded tracks at Bennett Studios in New Jersey. Jimena is also a composer, and she produces all of her own music. “I create music in a variety of genres, a fusion of jazz, blues, and Mexican,” Jimena observes. Jimena has also become involved in social causes, joining the United Nations’ Say NO, Unite To End Violence Against Women in Latin America campaign. “I was very honored to become part of this campaign, to send a message around the world to stop the violence,” Jimena states. “Violence against women in Latin America is a severe problem, and we shouldn’t be afraid to say it out MULTI-CULTURAL NEWSPAPER 5 see JAZZ Pg. 6 Serving Southern California • Los Angeles • Inglewood • Gardena • Hawthorne • Lawndale • Torrance • Redondo Beach • Manhattan Beach • Ladera • Baldwin Hills • Windsor Hills • Leimert Park • Westchester Fox Hills Shopping Mall • Culver City • and surrounding areas

CCN Culver City Celebrates Martin Luther King, Jr Day “What did Dr. King say? And what will we do?” is the theme for Culver City’s 9th Annual Celebration of the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The day-long celebration will feature a special screening of the epic 1970 Sidney Lumet film, “King: A Filmed Record. . . From Montgomery to Memphis. “ The keynote presentation will be given by Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith of Agape International Spiritual Center. Culver City’s MLK celebration will start at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, January 18, at the Culver City Senior Center, 4095 Overland Avenue in Culver City. The event is free. Other activities during Culver City’s King Day celebration include a panel discussion on the impact of Dr. King’s legacy; a dramatic rendition of Dr. King’s “I have a Dream Speech” by Actor Gerald Rivers; the debut of “Ways to Practice Nonviolence” public service announcement created by members of Culver City Teen Center and edited by animator Bruce Heller; and a special performance by singer-songwriter Rickie Byars Beckwith, Music and Arts Director of the Agape Interna- tional Spiritual Center. Actress and playwright Christina Harley and motivational speaker Wayne Slappy will co-host the day’s activities. The featured film “King: A Filmed Record . . . from Montgomery to Memphis” was originally released in theaters as a “one-time-only” event on March 24, 1970 and has been rarely seen since. There was a limited re-released in 2013 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington. The film chronicles the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. from the beginning of the Civil Rights movement in Montgomery, Alabama and culminating with his 1968 assassination in Memphis. Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary, the film combines dramatic readings by Harry Belafonte and others involved in the civil rights movement with newsreel and archival footage to create a powerful and comprehensive record of Dr. King’s legacy. Keynote speaker Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith founded the Agape International Spiritual Center in 1986 based on faith in a vision of a trans-denominational spiritual community. Agape reaches deep into local and global communities teaching individuals about the transforming, healing power of prayer, meditation, and selfless service. Since its inception, the movement has expanded into a community of 9,000 local members and 1,000,000 friends worldwide. During Culver City’s Martin Luther King’s Celebration, Common Peace, a non-profit committed to the practice of nonviolence, will debut a public service announcement (PSA) created by members of Culver City’s Teen Center.

- 3. January 9 - January 15, 2014 COMMUNITY THE Los Angeles County Sheriff, Plagued By Scandals, Announces Retirement “I didn’t want to have to enter a campaign that would be full of negative, contentious politicking,” said Baca, 71, who has spent 48 years in the Sheriff’s Department since becoming a deputy. Last month, federal prosecutors indicted 18 current and former sheriff’s deputies for alleged crimes that included beating inmates and jail visitors, falsifying reports, and trying to obstruct an FBI probe of the nation’s largest jail system. U.S. Attorney Andre Birotte Jr. said the indictments showed that “some members of the Sheriff’s Department considered themselves to be above the law” and “demonstrated behavior that had become institutionalized.” Baca was born in East Los Angeles. His mother was brought illegally from Mexico when she was a child. Later, she worked as a seamstress. “In those days, undocumented was different than it is today,” Baca was quoted as saying in an interview with KPCC, a Southern California public radio station. “And so it wasn’t difficult for her to become a citizen.” Baca recalled in the interview that his parents divorced, and that his mother came close to putting him up for adoption. “She couldn’t handle three kids at the same time, so I was put up for foster care,” he said, according to KPCC. “Then my paternal grandsee RETIREMENT Pg. 6 Cal State L.A. Celebrates Installation of Celebrated Artist Rick Hohn’s Art Piece, ‘Victorious Struggle’ Cal State L.A. will celebrate the installation of renowned artist and writer Rick Hohn’s painting, “Victorious Struggle,” to be mounted in the hallway outside of the University’s Charter College of Education office (King Hall D2069). A reception will immediately follow the installation ceremony. This eight-foot mural painting with seven progressive scenes from left to right depicts the struggle that Hohn’s childhood friend, Jamie, went through to get off the floor. Though severely paralyzed from polio, he could walk with braces and crutches, by raising and swinging his legs in front of his crutches for a step. The painting also demonstrates the fortitude in overcoming insurmountable odds in spite of Jamie’s acute paralysis. Hohn, who was born with cerebral palsy, has limited use of his limbs and paints. When Hohn was 15-years-old, his mother taped a paintbrush to his head pointer. They discovered that although his head pointer improved his communicative effectiveness, it also allowed him to paint. His first watercolor paintings were impressionistic landscapes. Today, he is 3 El Camino College Professor Sets Another International Swimming Record EYE In a move that many around him said they did not expect, Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca announced on Tuesday that he will retire at the end of this month. Baca, whose department and jails have been under fire that includes indictments of his deputies for allegedly beating inmates and visitors and falsifying reports, was expected to run for a fifth term despite all the scandals. The announcement came as the Sheriff’s Department and its jails have been under increasing scrutiny. In an emotional statement, Baca said the major reason for his decision was the “negative perception” the upcoming campaign would have on his department. www.calcrusnews.com El Camino College professor and master swimmer Traci Granger set yet another world record in a regional swim meet earlier this month. One of the fastest swimmers in the world, Granger tied the world record in the short course 50-meter butterfly, with a time of 31.13. She also went five for five at the meet, bringing home five first-place medals. The victory caps a tremendous year for Granger, who set several national and international speed records this past spring and summer. This month’s victory is the third world record for 2013. She is a 10-time national champion and has bested many athletes in younger age brackets, claiming these victories after taking nearly one year off from competing due to hip surgery. Granger set her first national record in 2008, winning her division in the 50-yard butterfly at the United States Masters Swimming (USMS) Short Course Championships. Since then, she continued to win gold medals and break records, often finishing with better times than competitors in younger age groups. Reaching the age of 55 this year, she moved into the 55-59 bracket. And yet, as a lifelong competitive swimmer, Granger does not set out to be a champion; she just enjoys the workout and the camaraderie of swimming with a group. “I do better in the pool when I am pushing myself and not thinking about what is going on in the races,” said Granger, who trains year-round at the Torrance Plunge with a motivated group of South Bay masters swimmers called the Los Angeles Peninsula Swimmers, or LAPS. “When I won the world record, I didn’t know how fast I was swimming but when I finished, they announced it, and I was surprised. When I race, I’m just trying to beat one of the guys on the team who always challenges me – Duncan McBride – we have an ongoing competition between us.” Granger took a break from competitive swimming in 2012 when she noticed her leg and hip were giving her some trouble. After consulting with doctors, she was diagnosed with a torn hip flexor and surgery was sched- an accomplished artist, minister, consultant and author of several books.

The rehab required her to slow down in everything, including walking, and definitely no swimming for three months. She was bored immediately. “I couldn’t sit on the stationary bike all day – I had to find something interesting to do,” she said. Granger soon met up with El Camino College exercise fitness specialist Kim Jones, who created personalized workouts to help with the rehab. “Training with Kim was outstanding – she is good for me because she asked me about my goals and helped me become stronger.” Granger said. “I told her that I would do anything that was going to make me stronger in the pool, anything that would be good for swimming. It was wonderful, with a lot of variety; I was getting bored doing the same thing. I needed to get my exercise, but I also wanted it to be interesting.” Turns out, Granger came back even faster after surgery. In May, Granger traveled to Indianapolis and shook up the short course nationals, winning five events: the 50-, 100-, and 200-yard butterfly; the 50 free; the 100 IM, and broke a national record in the 50-yard butterfly, with a time of 27.45. She felt tired, but did not detect post-surgery problems, so she decided to compete on the international level and enter the long course competition, though she has very little experience in this venue. The long course season includes races measured in meters, versus the yards presented at nationals. International competitors race in metered pools, so champions in these races are considered the fastest in the world. ments at CSULA, and her husband John Best.

That’s what really I was looking for. I wasn’t just going to take a job so I can have a paycheck.” Federal officials say a children’s lobbying group, PROTECT, pitched the idea of incorporating wounded veterans in the fight against child pornography. ICE Special Agent Patrick Redling said the agency, where veterans account for 30 percent of the workforce, ran with the idea. “They built their career upon fighting for this country and keeping cit- izens of this country safe,” Redling said. “What better to get somebody already with that mindset into a program where it’s another battlefield, very similar, but you’re keeping our children safe. You’re taking predators off the street.” The agency relied on the U.S. Special Operations Command to get the word out to wounded service members transitioning out of the military or already separated. The veterans were given about 11 weeks of intensive computer and legal training before being assigned to an ICE field office.

Zepeda, 29, is part of a 17-member class of veterans trained in computer forensics and sent to Immigration and Customs Enforcement field offices. They aren’t paid, and there’s no guarantee that they’ll have a full-time job when their one-year stint ends. But the interns are finding the purpose of their new mission outweighs financial considerations. “I love challenges.

January 9 - January 15, 2014 Community www.calcrusnews.com 5 Obama And Congress Give One More Push For Immigration Reform His agenda tattered by last year’s confrontations and missteps, President Barack Obama begins 2014 clinging to the hope of winning a lasting legislative achievement: an overhaul of immigration laws. THE SECRET WORLD OF ESPIONAGE WEST COAST PREMIERE SUMMARY It will require a deft and careful use of his powers, combining a public campaign in the face of protests over his administration’s record number of deportations with quiet, behind-thescenes outreach to Congress, something seen by lawmakers and immigration advocates as a major White House weakness. In recent weeks, both Obama and House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio, have sent signals that raised expectations among overhaul supporters that 2014 could still yield the first comprehensive change in immigration laws in nearly three decades. If successful, it would fulfill an Obama promise many Latinos say is overdue. The Senate last year passed a bipartisan bill that was comprehensive in scope that addressed border security, provided enforcement measures and offered a path to citizenship for 11 million immigrants in the United States illegally. House leaders, pressed by tea party conservatives, demanded a more limited and piecemeal approach.

And two days after calling Boehner to wish him happy birthday in November, Obama made it clear he could accept the House’s billby-bill approach, with one caveat: In the end, “we’re going to have to do it all.” Boehner, for his part, in December hired Rebecca Tallent, a former top aide to Sen. John McCain and most recently the director of a bipartisan think tank’s immigration task force. Even opponents of a broad immigration overhaul saw Tallent’s selection as a sign legislation had suddenly become more likely. Boehner also fed speculation he would ignore tea party pressure, bluntly brushing back their criticism of December’s modest budget agreement. “The question is what are the core things that Republicans can’t move away from, what are the core things that Democrats can’t walk away from,” said Republican pollster David Winston, who regularly consults with the House leadership. “You may have preferences and then you may have core elements. That’s part of the process of going back and forth.” If successful, an immigration compromise could restore some luster to Obama’s agenda, tarnished in 2013 by failures on gun legislation, bipartisan pushback on his efforts to take military action against Syria and the disastrous enrollment start for his health care law.

The 38-year-old has become wellknown for her screen roles, but has truly become a source of inspiration and an icon in the Latino community for her work as a producer, businesswoman and philanthropist. “Maxim” took notice. “I’ve had a beautiful relationship with ‘Maxim’ over all these years,” the former “Desperate Housewives” actress said. “When someone sees the cover of this issue, they’re going to say, ‘Que rico!’” The unbelievably busy Longoria had just presented her thesis for a master’s degree in Chicano studies at Cal State Northridge when the interview with the magazine happened. “I was like, ‘My brain can’t jump that fast from a ‘Maxim’ interview to a thesis!’” she said, explaining why she had to reschedule the interview. “Back in high school I really was the chameleon, too. I got along with the honors math club, then I would go to cheerleading practice, and then I was a band geek as well.” So what does Longoria do to unwind? She hits the kitchen. “One thing people are usually surprised about when they get to know me is how domestic I am,” she told the magazine. “So when you see the sexy ‘Maxim’ cover and then you put it against me in an apron with flour in my hair, it takes a moment to reconcile that image.” The issue hits the stands Jan. 17. CCN Alexa Vega is married again.The “Spy Kids” actress tied the knot with her boyfriend Carlos Peña, Jr. in a ceremony in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, on Saturday, Jan. 4, two months after their engagement, PEOPLE reports. In the morning of her nuptials, the 25-year-old actress tweeted: “Wow… I’m getting excited nervous!!!! Ahhh!!! #CountDownToAisle.” With was then followed by a tweet simply saying: “Mrs. PENAVEGA.” According to Just Jared, Vega and Peña have taken each other’s last names and will now go as Alexa PeñaVega and Carlos PeñaVega. The couple released a joint statement about their big day: “We are so thrilled and blessed that we were able to have all our close friends and family join us on our special day.” The “Machete Kills” actress and the 24-year-old Big Time Rush singer began dating last year and announced their engagement in September when she posted a snapshot of Peña that she captioned saying, “Hello fiancé.” CCN

Participating in the UN campaign is an important part of Jimena’s professional life. “Women need to see that there is a better life for them out there.” With a new album, My Swing Moods, Jimena is bringing it all together. “It’s all about positive emotions,” she notes, “a big step forward for me.” The collection, which was released during a live concert this past August at Jazz Club Muliero in Cancun, is a distinctive gallery of the artist’s latest work, including songs like Evidence Under The Pillow, We Will Always Be Together, and Showtime. Joining Jimena on the album are pianist Mario Patron, Aaron Cruz playing stand-up bass, drummer Giovanni Figueroa, and Grammy Award-winning engineer Alessandro Perrota, who worked with R&B icon Tony Bennett. It’s available on iTunes, and Jimena’s voice complements her band with a soft, touching blend of contemporary jazz and blues. The vocalist is also branching out into other art forms and projects. “Five months ago, “Jimena says, “I was writing the story for a documentary. We’re going to film it in the next 3 months, and it has a lot of music! It tells the story of a jazz singer who doesn’t meet her father until later in her life.” Jimena’s long-term plans include enhancing the cross-border appeal of her music with audiences in the United States, “showcasing everything I have,” and continuing to create more resonant, enthralling music.

Baca recommended Assistant Sheriff Terri McDonald. Baca has acknowledged mistakes while strongly defending his department and distancing himself personally from allegations of misconduct. The sheriff said he made improvements including creating a database to track inmate complaints. He has also hired a new head of custody and rearranged his command staff. On Monday, Baca said he would accept the outcome of the FBI investigation but strongly denied criticisms that abuse was rampant. The American Civil Liberties Union sued the Sheriff’s Department in 2012 saying the sheriff and his top commanders had condoned violence against inmates. The organization released a report documenting more than 70 cases of misconduct by deputies. A federal jury in October found Baca personally liable for $100,000 for failing to stop inmate abuse by deputies in Men’s Central Jail in a case brought by a man who said he was severely beaten while awaiting trial. The Sheriff’s Department also faced recent scrutiny over hiring. The department announced it was reforming its hiring practices last month after it was disclosed that 80 deputies had criminal convictions, histories of misconduct or other problem backgrounds. It also gave preferential hiring treatment to friends and relatives of its employees under a special “Friends of the Sheriff” program MLK from Pg. 2 that allowed top officials to lobby on pilot project entitled Ways to Practice behalf of applicants, the Los AngeNonviolence.

RECORD from Pg. 3 This year’s competition was scheduled for August in Mission Viejo, the one-year anniversary of Granger’s surgery. She competed in five events, took first place in four, second in one, and broke the world record in the 50-meter butterfly, with a time of 30.97. “I never want to look at the records or the times because I don’t want to put any pressure on myself,” said Granger, who competed in the 50-, 100-, and 200-meter butterfly, the 50-meter freestyle and the 200-meter IM. “At the Mission Viejo event, since it was close to home, we had some friends and family come out to cheer for each other. That’s what is fun. Good exercise, good friends.” The national and world champion does not like to talk about her victories; instead, Granger is looking forward to getting into the pool every day and working with students at El Camino College, where she teaches intermediate and advanced swimming, health, and first aid. A faculty member at El Camino College since 1992, Granger was previously the head swim coach at California Polytechnic University at San Luis Obispo. At Cal Poly SLO, Granger developed several AllAmerican and national qualifying athletes. As an athlete, Granger was an All-American sprinter and an NCAA Division II Championship finalist. She has a master’s degree from Colorado State University, a bachelor’s degree from Cal Poly SLO, and an associate degree from College of the Sequoias. “I’m just trying to have fun and get in my exercise,” she said. “Swimming seems to be a good way to do that.” ZEPEDA from Pg. 4 ment of Veterans Affairs for educational expenses. In exchange, they’re gaining expertise in computer forensics, a skill that’s in high demand with law enforcement agencies, and one that should lend itself to job offers once the internship is completed. In general, the veterans work in a lab and scour the computers and flash drives that agents in the field confiscate when conducting a search warrant. The veterans have two priorities: analyze the evidence to assist in the prosecution of a suspect, and help determine if there are children still in harm’s way who need to be rescued. The veterans also are called on to help agents carry out a search warrant. Zepeda said that’s how he spent his first day on the job. “We went on a raid and it was almost like I never left the Army,” he said. “It was like, ‘I’m ready. Let’s do it.’” When it comes to child pornography, a child is defined as any person under the age of 18. The Department of Justice said 2,331 defendants were charged in federal court during the past fiscal year with producing, January 9 - January 15, 2014 distributing or receiving child pornography. During the previous four years, the number of federal defendants charged with child pornography offenses ranged from 2,012 to 2,254. The veterans say they’ve already seen what Krieger called the “real dark side of what humankind can do.” CCN Legal Notices T.S.#: FORMTEXT 02013352 Loan#: FORMTEXT GAA220995-F APN#: FORMTEXT 4030034009 NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST, DATED AS SHOWN BELOW.

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.
