[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here comes the corruption. Apparently the head arbitrator for CAS, which ruled that the US was 4 seconds too late, is a lawyer whose main client is Romania. That's a huge non-waivable conflict of interest and potentially grounds for the Swiss court to throw out the CAS ruling. [url]https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/13/world/europe/olympics-jordan-chiles.html[/url][/quote] If you keep on reading, it was disclosed at the time to all parties and none objected. Whether it isnon-waivable is not an easy question. He represented the Romanian government which was not a party to the arbitration. [/quote] The Romanian prime minister, the head of the government, has been very vocal on this. It would be easy to argue influence.[/quote] It would be easy to argue, and the time was after the conflict was disclosed not after the judgment was announced [/quote] Given that we don't have access to the filings and whether he was transparent on his disclosure form, I'll wait to see what happens. [/quote] "The court said in an email that Mr. Gharavi had disclosed his work with Romania in writing and that none of the parties involved in the hearing had objected to his appointment as the panel’s chair." [/quote] So says an email. Let's see what happens.[/quote] What happens probably depends on how much USOC wants to put their thumb on the scale. We're hosting 2028 and Romania is just Romania.
