An error is shown to exist in the Segal (1976) chronogeometric redshift theory. The redshift distance relation derived by Segal using quantum theory violates the classical correspondence limit. The corrected result is derived using simple classical arguments. This result gives the same predictions for small-redshift objects but differs for large-redshift objects such as quasars. The difference is shown to be caused by inconsistencies in the quantum derivation. Correcting these makes the quantum result equal to the classical result, as one would expect from the correspondence principle. The impact of the correction on the predictions of the theory is discussed.
