# Reject <3>

#

Gemini sends a [Reject `<3>`](https://www.onixs.biz/fix-dictionary/4.4/msgType_3_3.html) message when a message is received but cannot be properly processed due to a session-level rule violation. A reject is typically a serious error in the trading application's session logic. A session reject would also be generated if client message rate has exceeded the allocated throttle.
