Section 12.06.200. Accidental fouling.

	(a)  If a contest is stopped because of an accidental foul, the referee shall determine whether the contestant who has been fouled can continue. If the contestant's chance of winning has not been seriously jeopardized as a result of a foul, the referee may order the contest continued after a reasonable interval.  
	(b)  Except in the first rounds of a contest as provided for in (c) of this section, if a contestant is accidentally fouled in a contest so that he or she cannot continue, the referee shall call the contest a technical draw if the injured contestant is behind on points, or declare the injured contestant the winner on a technical decision if he or she is ahead on points. If judges are used, a majority vote of the judges, as disclosed by the scorecards, prevails in determining the decision. If the scorecards differ as to the point leader, the contest must be declared a technical draw.  
	(c)  If a contestant is accidentally fouled in a bout so that he or she cannot continue, the referee shall call the contest a draw if the accidental foul occurs during  
		(1) the first round of a contest having 4 or 6 rounds;  
		(2) the first or second round of an 8-round contest; or  
		(3) the first, second, or third round of a contest having 10 or more rounds.
