    In subsection (b), the words ``with the secretary of state or other 
designated official'' are substituted for ``in the office of the 
secretary'' for clarity and consistency in the revised title. The words 
``local, State, or regional'', ``post office'', and ``authorized'' are 
omitted as unnecessary. The words ``in that State, territory, or 
possession'' are added (the 2d time they appear), and the words ``legal 
process'' are substituted for ``local process'', for clarity and 
consistency in the revised title.
