Re: [RC] Deaths - the list - Jim HollandJohn.. However, I assume that AERC could "sanction" that rider for refusal to honor a pre-agreement...which might be an added benefit... :) Jim, Sun of Dimanche, and Mahada Magic John Teeter wrote: There is merit to the concept of pre-authorization, though I am sure there must be legal arguments concerning the validity of such authorization. That aside, I think this was the direction that Dr. Baldwin was going with his resolution concerning pre-agreement to open records for education ... which was passed at the last mid-year meeting. The costs of any post-event (be it either treatment and/or death) evaluations might be borne by AERC. The head vet, as an agent of the AERC, might provide the authorization (including authorization to pay any associated fees/expenses). Of course the owner of the eqine may refuse that service, thus withdrawing from the AERCs growing body of knowledge concerning Endurance Riding. johnt =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
