1. Right to Hearing and Appeal

5020. The right to a fair and impartial hearing and the right to appeal shall not be denied to any member, minister, local church, district or official body of The Wesleyan Church. No one shall be arbitrarily set aside without due consideration for both spiritual welfare and rights as a member of The Wesleyan Church and shall always have the right to request a hearing or to appeal, even when placed under discipline (Disc. 302:4; 305:3; 313:7; 315:8; 323:10; 360:3f; 375:4, 6; 380).
