What's this supposed to mean?  Sounds like a barbecuing procedure.

Please explicate whether a Notice of Rotation is effective when published
illegally.

Listing all outstanding CFJs is a tricky requirement.  I see why you
want to require it, though.  How about "at least one open CFJ without a
Trial Judge assigned and no players eligible to be assigned has at least
one player ineligible due solely to being turned, and all CFJs that were
called earlier than this CFJ either have a Trial Judge assigned or have
no players eligible to be assigned"?

Also, the "without a Trial Judge" bit makes a presumption about court
procedure that won't necessarily hold.  Dismissed CFJs, for example, may
have no Trial Judge and not be due to get one.  I suggest that you replace
"without a Trial Judge" with "with a Trial Judge assignment pending".

I'd rather we just make the assignment stand, without the option to
reassign.

Also, possibly a better way to draft the whole thing: since it is possible
to assign a turned player, e's not really ineligible.  Perhaps the whole
Rule should be recast that way, so that being turned doesn't make a player
ineligible but does make it illegal (although possible) to assign em.
