[blml] 2 hands

I wonder if anyone knows what happens if a bid is inadvertent (for example a
mechanical error) and insufficient but condoned by the next hand passing.
Does law 25A or law 27A take precedence? Logic suggests the former, as a
pair may prefer to have a normal auction rather than one with an extra round
of bidding space where they are guessing what the meanings of bids are. What
would 1NT - 1C - 1NT mean, for example!?
 
Sven comments: An inadvertent bid (accepted by the Director as inadvertent
when ruling at the table) can never be "accepted" by LHO.

Law 25A takes precedence and the inadvertent bid "has never occurred".
