The claimant has to bear the risk of deviating service dates, if it waited to arrange payment for service in the U.S. in due course after the request of the sub-registry.
While a claimant is not obliged to proactively arrange payment for service in the U.S., it remains in its own interest to cooperate with the court's registry as quickly as possible[…].
