Award objection: hearing notice parties · case 01

Hearing notice omits losing participants or re-notifies everyone.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 9 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Hearing notice omits losing participants or re-notifies everyone.

VERIFIED REPAIR

For hearing notice parties, apply the stipulated decision sorted(set(x["participants"])-set(x["notified"])).

Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair uses sorted(set(x["participants"])); 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 hearing-notice-parties: For hearing notice parties, apply the stipulated decision sorted(set(x["participants"])-set(x["notified"])).

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.
