     There _is_ such a thing, assuming that the meaning is a procedural force
     statement. Note that the sentence is talking about a release, which means
     it is ending a force. A deassign is used to end an assign. And when a
     force is released on a net, the net immediately changes value to what is
     being driven. So I don't see any problem here.
