§ 183.404. Appeal to Commission from rulings of officials.
(a) All decisions and rulings of the Executive Secretary of the Commission, judges or other race officials of any race may be appealed to the Commission within 10 days after notice of such decision or ruling. The appeal may be taken upon any question in the conduct of a race, interpretation of the rules, decisions relative to the outcome of a race, application of penalties or other action affecting owners, drivers or horses, but it must be based on a specific charge which, if true, would warrant modification or reversal of the decision.
(b) The Commission may vacate, modify or increase any penalty imposed by the judges. In the event an appellant fails to appear at the hearing on his appeal without good cause, he may be further penalized. The Commission will have the right to review any decisions or penalties imposed by the officers of the United States Trotting Association, officials of the racing meets or of the district board.
