- Any interference by the exhibitor to influence or dictate the decisions of the judges will be sufficient cause for excluding his or her entry from competition and must be reported to the Fair Board Secretary by the Superintendent of the Division.
- The Superintendent of a Division may request the judge in his Division to state the reasons for awards if such a request is made by an exhibitor or spectator.
- The decision of the judges shall be final in all cases except where mistake, fraud, or misrepresentation not discovered at the time the award is made, is apparent. In such cases the Fair Board decision is final.
