Award objection: open objection finality · case 01

One resolved objection makes an award final while others remain open.

ROOT CAUSE

One resolved objection makes an award final while others remain open.

VERIFIED REPAIR

For open objection finality, apply the stipulated decision not (set(x["objections"])-set(x["resolved"])-set(x["withdrawn"])).

Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair uses set(x["objections"])<=set(x["resolved"]); the explicit regression cases demonstrate that this still violates the stipulated auction rule.

Case contract

A provisional award challenge has bidder standing, grounds, evidence receipt, hearing outcomes and a limited remedy. Filing preserves the award but blocks finality until all admissible objections are resolved. Dates are ticks and list entries retain filing order. Named decision open-objection-finality: For open objection finality, apply the stipulated decision not (set(x["objections"])-set(x["resolved"])-set(x["withdrawn"])).

Verification & scope

Stipulated toy auction rules, not a venue specification, financial advice, optimization claim, or live trading implementation. Nonnegative integer inputs and internally aligned list fields only. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
