[DE 8]. The Court has carefully considered the motion and is otherwise fully advised in the premises. Plaintiff seeks an extension of time to serve a foreign defendant, Internet Gaming Entertainment, through the Hague Convention, a process that Plaintiff reports takes 12 to 16 weeks.

This defendant was part of the original complaint. Thus, the current service deadline is September 28, 2007. Plaintiff seeks an extension of 60 days from December 14, 2007. While the Court will grant an extension to the current deadline, the Court will make the new deadline December 31, 2007, an extension of just over 90 days from the original deadl i ne.
