OTC relies on the Atty letter to be correct to move forward. So it is the Atty whose ass is in line if all the docs needed to go current is actually filed or not. If the Atty makes a mess few times then OTC will never accept his certification and no one will use him and he will lose his business. So Atty has to look at it carefully. It shouldn't take long but he is probably doing other things as well where he makes more money.
