Back And fourth

Opp. keeps moving one piece back and fourth to the same spot even though he has other pieces to move. Is there a penalty for that?

Nope there is no rule against moving the same peice back and forth. A draw by repetition of position 3 times may occur and a draw by either player can be claimed. The penalty might be that you get free moves to build up your position!?
