- Five years conclusively cures every fraud
- Section 151.1(b) permits a fraud-based petition at any time; the five-year provision is not universal immunity
- A petition automatically wins without proof
- Only a criminal conviction permits any cancellation inquiry
- The registration becomes a statute after five years
