Quand il y a un arbitre, ses décisions sont finales; quand il y a un juge-arbitre, il a le pouvoir d'entendre les appels sur les décisions des arbitres qui impliquent des questions de droit, c'est-à-dire d'interprétation des règlements. La décision du juge-arbitre est alors finale. Quand il y a des adjoints à l'arbitre (juges de lignes, juge de filet, juges de fautes de pied), leurs décisions sont finales sur les questions de fait, c'est-à-dire de jugement, sauf si l'arbitre estime qu'une erreur manifeste a été commise. 1, record 1, French, - question%20de%20fait
