seven statements, including a statement that “[t]he affiant or declarant is the decedent’s successor in interest (as defined in Section 377.11 of the California Code of Civil Procedure) and succeeds to the decedent’s interest in the action or proceeding” and that “[n]o other person has a superior right ... to be substituted for the decedent in the pending action or proceeding.” (Code Civ. Proc., § 377.32, subd. (a).) Code Civ. Proc. § 377.32, subds. (a)(1) through (7), sets forth the requirements for the affidavit.
The court finds that Frazee complied with Code Civ. Proc. § 377.32 by submitting her declaration and the attached exhibits. (See Decl. of Frazee, ¶¶ 1-6; Exhibit A [Certificate of Death] and Exhibit B [Certification of Trust]).
Accordingly, this action will be continued by Toni Marie Frazee as the successor in interest of Plaintiff Gerald C. Lentz, now deceased, in place and instead of Plaintiff Gerald C. Lentz.
