IN SUPPORT THEREOF 

Date Action Filed: May 10, 2005

Courtroom: 3 

Defendant Trans Union LLC (“Trans Union”) respectfully requests 

permission to appear telephonically at the hearing on defendant Rickenbaker 

Group’s Motion to Dismiss set for September 26, 2005, at 9:00 a.m. 

Good cause exists to grant this request because unless telephonic appearance 

is permitted, Trans Union LLC’s counsel will be required to travel from Irvine to 

Sacramento, and Trans Union LLC will incur significant travel costs and attorneys’ 

fees.

2. My law firm represents Defendant Trans Union LLC in the above 

captioned matter. I have personal knowledge of the facts stated herein. 

3. My office is located in the City of Irvine, California. Thus, an

that the foregoing is true and correct, and that this Declaration was executed on 

this 8th day of September, 2005, at Irvine, California.
