tioned in Section 29 of this Article, file a petition verified by affidavit, in
the Circuit Court for Montgomery County or in the Circuit Court for
Washington County, as the case may be, setting forth the grounds of his
or her applications, and asking to have the registry corrected. The pro-
ceedings of the Court subsequent to the filing of such petition shall be
governed by the provisions of said Section 29 of this Article. Upon the
delivery to the Permanent Board of Registry of the respective Counties
of a certified copy of an order granting the relief prayed in the petition,
said Permanent Boards of Registry shall correct the original and dupli-
cate cards in accordance with such order and shall make the appropriate
disposition of such cards. Exceptions may be taken and appeal allowed as
provided in said Section 29, and such appeal shall be taken, heard and
decided as provided in said section.
