Ok, I must to set isolation level to 'serializable' at the function begin, and set isolation level to 'normal mode' at
theend.
How can I do it ?
Thanks..

If USER2's transaction has been committed, if the isolation level is
'read committed' the function will return false but if the isolation
level is 'serializable' it will return true.
If USER2's transaction is uncommitted, the function will return true
whatever the isolation level.
