Opinion
SONENSHINE, J.
Brechtel-Jochim Group, Inc., Thomas W. Brechtel, Linda Brechtel, Randy Jochim and Ann Jochim appeal from a default judgment. They argue the trial court had no personal jurisdiction over them. They maintain service of summons and complaint upon a guard at the entrance of a gated community does not meet the requirements of Code of Civil Procedure section 415.20 1 because a gate guard is neither a competent member of the household nor a person apparently in charge of the business. We disagree and affirm.
