Yes, his comment about triggers made me realize the trigger issue which you mentioned, about which I also explained in earlier reply. > I have one more question, Suppose the first time we come for > ExecDelete and fire the BR delete trigger and then realize that we need to > retry because of the concurrent update.

No, we don't fire the BR update trigger again. We go to lreplace label, and BR trigger code is above that label. The reason we don't need to run the trigger check again is because if we had already fired it before, the row must have been locked, so concurrency scenario won't arise in the first place.
