When
the Records Coordinator receives an entry with an unacceptable
registration number, the Records Coordinator will advise
the owner that points, placements and titles earned
and FAN publication of same, will be held in abeyance
for a maximum period of 90 days. During that pending
period, the hound will be listed in FAN trial results
as "pending". If the owner submits an acceptable
registration number to the Records Coordinator within
the time allowed the hound will be credited with points/
placements/titles earned in the interim.
If
an owner fails to notify the Records Coordinator of
a hound's acceptable registration number within the
90-day pending period, all points, placements and/or
titles earned during that period will be void. There
will be no effect on other hounds' points/placements
if a correction is not made or if the entry is disallowed.
