UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT NORTHER DISTRICT OF TEXAS DALLAS DIVISION SUSAN CHANG, as Next Friend of Alison Chang, a minor, And Justin Ho-Wee Wong Plaintiffs, v. Virgin Mobile Pty Ltd., Defendant. § § § § § § § § § § § § § CAUSE NO. 3:07-CV-01767 PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR LEAVE TO RE-SERVE DEFENDANT VIRGIN MOBILE PTY LTD. Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court grant leave so that Plaintiffs may re-serve Defendant Virgin Mobile Pty Ltd, which was served with process through the Texas Secretary of State on October 18, 2007. This request is intended to promote judicial efficiency by obviating any future need to address the defect in service alleged in Defendant's Motion to Dismiss. Because this alleged defect merely concerns the manner in which Defendant was served--i.e., through the Texas Secretary of State rather than by one of the means prescribed by Rule 4(h) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure--Defendant will in no way be prejudiced by this Court's decision to allow re-service in a manner consistent with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 1 Respectfully submitted, /s/ Ryan H.
