RRS.org counterparty for redress under 61.4(b)(4): giving help to another boat

If I am requesting redress under 61.4(b)(4), giving help to another boat, I'm not claiming it's because of a boat that caused damage or injury to me, or a commitee error, or a support person. 

But when hearing requests are filed on RRS.org, it seems I *must* provide a counterparty, whether that is another boat or a committee.

What is the proper counterparty for a 61.4(b)(4) redress request?

Well, the one time I did such a thing, many years ago, I protested myself. Let us just say an egregious error was made.

As there is no counter party for a part 4 request for redress, "helping a boat in danger", if the online form will not accept a request without an entry as a counter party, you just have to finagle it. Enter your own boat name, or the OA.

Always a good idea to have a paper form available in case the software isn’t working.

RRS 61.2 only requires the request to be in writing (which includes email/online etc) & identify the reason for making it. If the system the event is using has not caught up with this yet & there is no obvious counterparty, just put PC  or Jury as the counterparty, as they are the ones who you are requesting to grant it. If it is due to an improper action then the counterparty is the committee that you consider did that action.
