At a recent congress East made a face up opening lead (heart) out of turn. Director was called and Declarer was given the options and elected to accept the lead and be dummy. So far, so good. The Director stayed at the table and when E/W either won the first trick or regained the lead (not sure which - I wasn't there) the Director disallowed the lead of a heart. I can't find anything in the Law Book - can someone please point me in the right direction.

Director's error.

Once presumed declarer (South here) accepts the OLOOT (regardless of whether he elects to become declarer or dummy) the case is closed and there is no further rectification. (Law 54)
