All parties are encouraged to resolve alleged infractions as soon as possible through informal discussion before filing an infraction. If the accusing party is comfortable discussing the incident leading to the infraction with representatives of the accused chapter, NPC encourages informal discussion between the disputing parties. Often the two parties can reach a mutual understanding and resolve the situation without further action needed.

Prior to submitting the violation report, please review page 89 of the NPC Manual of Information to learn about the information discussion process and how to file an infraction.
