Abstract: Simple extensions of the nonparametric bivariate survival estimator of Lin and Ying (Biometrika 80 (1993) 573) are proposed which permit consistent estimation over the entire support of the censored data distribution. These extensions utilize a simple class of stopping times. Large sample uniform consistency of the proposals is also established.
