In the LL tourneys, this would be a show stopper until ruled upon. But like I said to Rich, this isn't going to get ruled on to anyone's satisfaction by the game umpire, no matter who it is.

LL allows protests to go to (1) the umpire, (2) the TD/DA/person in charge, (3) the region, (4) Williamsport. If the loser of the protest isn't happy, they can continue to appeal all the way to the janitor answering the phones at Williamsport. We've never had one go past the region, but I think that's because few know they can appeal the region's ruling.
