Like Tedd suggested, I would just dispose of it first.

if humRGN  <> 0 then DISPOSERGN(humRGN)

and go about your business.

There may be easier ways to handle what you are doing though.

If you are tracking sprites, you can just check the sprite's rects for
intersection at any given time using

hit = FN SectRect(testRect1,testRect2,iRect)

If your items are intersecting, then hit will be _True,  and the
intersecting area will be in iRect.

Otherwise, you will get a value if hit= _False.

This avoids the need to create a region.
