OPINION

CHAPA, Justice.

This appeal concerns the validity of a default judgment on a sworn account granted to W.J.T., Inc. (WJT) against Morris Walker (Walker). We are asked to determine 1) whether the service by certified mail was proper, and 2) if the “sworn account” was introduced into evidence, whether it was sufficient to support the default judgment. We affirm.

Initially, Walker contends the citation is fatally defective and violates TEX.R.CIV.P. 107 because the return of citation fails to show when the citation was served, the manner of service, and the signature of the serving officer.
