[RC] Tyron case and fines-your opinions.... - Horseraser
After careful examination of the parties' submissions and evidence, the
Tribunal confirmed the disqualification of horse and the competitor from the
above-mentioned event and imposed the following sanctions on the competitor:
suspension from competition for a period of two months (to commence
immediately and without further notice at the end of the 30-day appeal
deadline, or sooner if the right of appeal is waived);
a fine of 1,000 Swiss francs ($833);
a cost contribution of 1,500 ($1,249) towards the legal costs of the
judicial procedure.
I really like the idea of charging the rider with a financial penalty-don't
you all think that this would be a great add on to our own rules?
