Changes in ACBL LawsPosted by Venice-Nokomis Duplicate Bridge Center in Untagged |
As a player, you may be asking what impact the changes in the laws have upon you. The answer is, as
usual, very little. This is because the changes deal with restoring equity when there has been an irregularity.
There have been no changes of the basic rules or laws — e.g., scoring is unchanged and the ranks of the denominations are the same. One overall change in wording is reflective of the original intent of the
laws to “redress damage and not to penalize.” To emphasize this intent, the laws now use the word penalty only in reference to procedural and disciplinary penalties. In all other cases, the Laws use the word “rectification.”

ACBL Laws of Duplicate BridgePosted by Venice-Nokomis Duplicate Bridge Center in Untagged |
The latest version of the ACBL Laws of Duplicate Bridge. This is the first revision since 1997.
2008 LAWS OF DUPLICATE BRIDGE
The Laws are designed to define correct procedure and to provide an adequate remedy when there
is a departure from correct procedure. They are primarily designed not as punishment for irregularities
but rather for the rectification of situations where non-offenders may otherwise be damaged. Players
should be ready to accept gracefully any rectification or adjusted score awarded by the Director.
