This didn't happen in my assoc, but my buddy's assoc said this move was illegal also. They had a half hour argument about it in their meeting and the jury is still out. He even shoved it back in his interpreter's face:
Interpreter: "blah blah blah... this move is illegal."
My Buddy: *raises hand* "So we're changing the rule?"
Interpreter: "uh.. um... uh..." *followed by more stuttering and stammering*
Another umpire: "Exactly!"
I really wish interpreters would follow the rules.
