Default title in TOC multiple times

I have 2 instances where the titles appears twice in the TOC. In both cases,
the first entry has only a page break and no other text and the second entry
is the correct one. IE, in example below, page 16 has only a page break,
page 17 is the correct page for the Show Committee listing.

Example:
Show Committee...................................16
Show Committee...................................17

How do I correct this problem?


Do I understand correctly that the heading is the first thing on page
17, and that it's immediately preceded by a manual page break? In that
case, remove the manual page break (which is part of the same
paragraph as the heading, and therefore has the same Heading style,
which is why it's appearing in the TOC). Right-click the heading,
select Paragraph, click the Line & Page Breaks tab of the dialog, and
check the box for the "Page break before" option.
