All appeals or complaints, other than game protests, must be submitted in writing to the division Director, complete with proof of error (unless proof exists within league records).

Individuals wishing to appeal the decision of a division Director can request a ruling from the Executive.

Individuals wishing to appeal the decision of the Executive must use the N.L.H.A. appeals process. The Executive will arrange the initial correspondence between the dissatisfied party and the N.L.H.A. representative.

At all steps of the appeal process, all involved parties shall be offered the opportunity to make representation. Involved parties who choose not to make representation lose the right for rebuttal.
