sanction. ..."
Using this logic if two people were to see you cut
trail, we could not file a protest unless we had a photograph of you doing
it? Or maybe not even then because we all know that photos can be
faked.
You are continuing to try to confuse the issue by
raising straw men and knocking them down. If an invasive treatment were to
be witnessed by one or two persons (say me and my wife), if the alerted vet then
found the needle mark, if the vet DQ'd the person, if the DQ'd person protested,
if the P&G committee did not allow the protest based on hearing with due
process and used the standard of preponderance of evidence then the DQ'd person
could sue. That would be a mess, but we can't avoid all possibility of law
suits.
The only law suit of this type I have heard
of happened when David Boggs was sanctioned for violation of show
rules. His sanction was upheld.
If your idea of a having a list of prohibited drugs
etc. would not stop lawsuits at all. They would just change the fight to
one about exact amounts, lab integrity, chain of evidence etc.
