:dunno:

Can someone please give me the correct ruling on pulling out a stop card when it is not a jump bid?

Re: Stop Card ( 09:03:11 WedAug 13 2003 )
If a player pulls out a stop card, they are not required to make a jump
bid, whether the stop card was a complete aberation or if they change
their mind. The call is made with the appropriate card - the stop card
does not constitute making (or starting to make) a call.

If a player pulls out a stop card and then makes a non jump bid (or
passes or doubles or redoubles) then the use of the stop card is
unauthorised information to their partner and, if it suggests one action
or another, their partner may be constrained by Law 16A.

RMB is correct, but call the director and have him explain the requirements before the auction proceedes.
