Using the canonical formalism, Compagno and Persico [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 35 (2002) 3629--45] have calculated the 'radiation-reaction' force on a uniform spherical charge moving rigidly, slowly and slightly from its position at the time when the transverse electric field is assumed to vanish. This force is shown to result in the same time-averaged self-force as that which has been obtained by different means for the test charge of a Bohr--Rosenfeld field-measurement procedure and which Compagno and Persico claimed to be incorrect.
