Is it at all conceivable that a Judge/Plaintiff can say -- The whole 
idea of the 60-day period was proposed by IAHC.  They advocated this 
*legal* position in an otherwise technical document.  So they should 
either team up with the defendant (assuming liability) and contest 
the case or the 60-day period is a figment of imagination or words
to that effect in legal terms?  

Just curious.
