Correct contract bridge / by E.V. Shepard ; including the official Laws of contract bridge adopted by the Whist Club, New York, and by all the leading clubs in America.

LAWS OF CONTRACT BRIDGE 223 (c) Direct that the contracting revert to the last legitimate declaration and be continued by the side not in error. BID OR DOUBLE OUT OF TURN 22. An out-of-turn bid is void, unless the opponent on the left of the offender declares before either the in-turn bidder declares, or before any player calls attention to the offense. When the out-of-turn bid is void, the contracting proceeds from the declaration of the proper bidder, and the partner of the offender is barred from further participation in the contracting; but the offender may declare thereafter in his proper turn. When the partner of the offender is the in-turn bidder, such turn passes to the next bidder. When the opponent on the left declares before the in-turn bidder, and before attention is called to the out-of-turn bid, the contracting continues from that declaration and there is no penalty. A double or redouble out of turn is subject to the same provisions and penalties as a bid out of turn, except when it is the partner's turn to declare, for which Law 26-g provides. PASS 23. When, in his proper turn in the contracting, a player does not bid, double or redouble, he must pass; he should do so by saying "Pass" or "No Bid," and the turn to declare is thereby transferred to the next player on the left, unless such pass ends the contracting.
