Tough Situation

No easy answer or method for an official to check fouls on an individual player, but:

1) Are both books the same?
2) Are both scorekeepers at the table?
3) Do the number of individual fouls equal the total number of team fouls in either/both book(s)?
4) Are there any distictions between first half and second half fouls in either/both book(s), some scorekeepers change a slash into an "X" during halftime?
5) Has either/both scorekeeper(s) shown any evidence of having problems correctly keeping score up until that point, i.e. not paying attention?

These suggestions may help you figure out if that player has indeed fouled out, but it still going to be messy.
