Points of small height on plane curves

Let K be an algebraically closed field, and let C be an irreducible plane curve, defined over the algebraic closure of K(t), which is not defined over K. We show that there exists a positive real number c??? such that if P is any point on the curve C whose Weil height is bounded above by c???, then...
