Principles of fairness
Where a relationship could compromise the fairness of judging, the juror withdraws from judging that work.
If any of the above applies, or the juror judges that a fair review is difficult, they may recuse themselves with the permission of the Chair of the Jury. An entrant may file a written challenge before judging begins.
If an entrant you recruited is included in that exhibition’s judging, you are either excluded from recruitment incentive payments or must be excluded from judging that entry.
