elapsing

The timeframe for issuing warrants can vary, with weeks and even months sometimes elapsing between the point at which the ICC prosecutor requests it, and judges grant it.

With years often elapsing between the incident and inquest, Alexander said inquests often open wounds and “re-traumatize” the families.

"When the time starts elapsing because you can't get to someone, we know their outcomes will be worse - and that really gets to us."

But he says that this was impossible because the allotted six months began elapsing as soon as the estate was put up for sale.

Next year, though, that policy is elapsing, and at his age, Natiello's insurance premiums would spike if he decided to extend coverage.
