(b) The court in any action or proceeding in which service is made in the manner provided in W.S. 26-12-203 may order a postponement as necessary to afford the defendant reasonable opportunity to comply with the provisions of subsection (a) of this section and to defend the action.(c) Nothing in subsection (a) of this section prevents an unauthorized insurer from filing a motion to quash or to set aside the service of any process made in the manner provided in W.S. 26-12-203 on the ground either: (i) That the unauthorized insurer did not engage in any of the acts enumerated in W.S. 26-12-202; or(ii) That the person on whom service was made pursuant to W.S. 26-12-203 was not engaged in any of the acts enumerated in W.S. 26-12-202.
