| Aug 20, 2014 at 14:46 | comment | added | oerkelens | "such period as seems reasonable" does in no way confuse or frustrate me, and it certainly doesn't detain me. The only hickup in the sentence is the (strange?) inversion of as seems reasonable to the court. You could add an "it", I guess, but I see no reason for it. | |
