Yes,
there are Chess Arbiters and
their duty is to enforce that the
rules of Chess are strictly observed and shall
act in the best interest of the competition or
tournament.
Also, the Arbiter should
ensure that a good playing environment is maintained at all
times and that the players are not disturbed or distracted in
any way.
The Arbiter shall observe the
games in progress especially those in time trouble. He should
enforce decisions he has made and impose penalties on players
when appropriate.
Some possible penalties an Arbiter can
issue may include:
1. A warning
2. Expulsion from the event
3. Declaring the game to be lost
4. Increasing the remaining time of the opponent
5. Reducing the remaining time of the offending player
