DEC with opponent confirmation

Hi all

I've searched in the forum but maybe I'm not so good at it.
In the annotated IPG is said that if a player DEC with the confirmation of opponent is not DEC but a GRV will be issued.
The question is:is both side GRV or for the opponet is FTMGS?
Because in this case I see an “active” action by the opponet so for me is a good way to issue a double GRV.

Anyone can clarify this?

Thank you

It's not double GRV.

The easy way to remember this: if it doesn't involve Path to Exile, then it almost certainly isn't double GRV.

I wouldn't consider NAP confirming a draw an active involvement in the
illegal action taken by AP. I'd rule GRV+FtMGS here.

Quoting Toby Elliott on his Policy Perspectives blog post on the M15 IPG
update
<http://blogs.magicjudges.org/telliott/2014/07/14/m15-policy-changes/>:

It should only apply when one player performs a one-shot effect and the
other player gets involved in completing it (subsequently making a mistake).
