  1. In preliminary rounds, a judge may request up to two pieces of evidence (and/or the Team Policy plan). A judge may also request evidence through the Compliance staff following a preliminary or elimination round. Please see the Debate Evidence Review guidelines. An evidence review does not mean that a rule violation is implied; Compliance is simply the department that facilitates evidence requests for judges at the tournament. Competitors should do their best to arrive promptly at the designated area with their evidence, keeping in mind that the judge who requested the evidence is likely waiting for the evidence in order to complete their ballot.
