GEN123. GENERAL NOTICE PROCEDURE.

  • GEN123.1 Rule, Regulation and Policy Changes.

    • GEN123.1.1 Official Handbook. Each member or American Quarter Horse owner is charged with notice of all rules and regulations published in the current Official Handbook. Upon request, AQHA furnishes each member a current AQHA Official Handbook annually. (online at aqha.com)

    • GEN123.1.2 The American Quarter Horse Journal. Additional to notice provided by this Official Handbook, a member or an American Quarter Horse owner has the affirmative duty to remain current with AQHA rules, regulations, policies and other matters pertaining to AQHA events and programs, that may be amended from time to time during a particular year, sometimes with immediate effect, rather than January 1 of a particular year when AQHA Official Handbooks are issued. To fulfill such duty, a member or horse owner should subscribe to The American Quarter Horse Journal, where notice of changes pertaining to such matters is routinely published or visit aqha.com. Although subscription to The American Quarter Horse Journal is not required, AQHA has fulfilled its duty to provide members and American Quarter Horse owners notice of these intra-year changes and proposed changes effective January 1 of the following year, by publishing them in The American Quarter Horse Journal or at aqha.com

  • GEN123.2 Personal Service of Notice. Every notice required by these rules and regulations may be served by delivering the notice to the person to be served, or his attorney, by hand delivery, by U.S. mail postage prepaid, or by express mail to his last known address as it appears on AQHA's records. Notices delivered pursuant to this rule shall be deemed given: (1) at the time delivered, if personally delivered; (2) at the time received, if mailed; and (3) one business day after timely tender to the person, if delivered via express mail. Such notice may be served by facsimile (fax) transmission to the last known fax number or by email to the last known email address. Such transmission shall be deemed received by such person by confirmation of the transmission to AQHA.
