Johnson & Johnson v. Superior Court green
cal · 1985
2 sentences

1994(Johnson & Johnson v. Superior Court, supra, 38 Cal.3d 243 , 255.) In that case, as in this, no conflicting evidence or presumption was involved, and the presumption was therefore sufficient.

1994For example, the court held that section 415.40 service was proper because the summons and complaint were mailed as provided in that section and a return was filed which included a properly executed affidavit of service by mail even though the signed return receipts were not included with the original return of service. ( 38 Cal.3d at p. 256 .) This case supports plaintiff’s position. 5 In a passage applicable here, the court also held that the presumption of Evidence Code section 641 (that a letter is presumed to have been received in the ordinary course of the mail) was sufficient to satisfy
