If I may, Mr. Chair, my understanding is that it could be cured for six months. If there's a failure on the title, or in this case, it's not the title, but there's a six-month window, that gives the opportunity to lawyers, who of course are patent officers who register these, to send them off. When they bring them back, if they see that it's not a perfect registration, they have a six-month window to be able to perfect it, with a letter. If it's not within that six-month window, and they find out through negligence or some other challenge to their right in three or four years, then they have to go to court for a settlement of that.
