A total of 86 cases processed since the beginning of the year 

The three decisions of the FEI Judicial Committee are now available from the FEI website, section Legal/Horses:

- Positive Medication Case, Quietude ridden by Cathleen Calvert (CAN), CSI-W Los Angeles (USA)
- Positive Medication Case, Buehler ridden by Susanna Bordone (ITA), CIC-OG3* Punchestown (IRL)
- Positive Medication Case, O.Cor D'Emilion ridden by Henk Van de Pol (NED), CSIO5*/CSIOJ Lummen (BEL)

A total of 86 cases were processed and finalised since 1 January 2005, of which 27 were decided according to the Administrative Sanctioning Procedure (“Fast-Track procedure”). 37 cases were decided by correspondence by the Judicial Committee, which also held 6 hearings.

Twenty-five cases are still pending as of 7 November 2005. This compares to 43 at the same time last year.

Following the recommendations of the Task Force on Doping and Medication Policy, the status of the cases opened since 1 January 2005 is published on the FEI website on a monthly basis.

A case will be added to the table as soon as a positive A-sample has been confirmed by a confirmatory analysis (B-sample) or the Person Responsible has waived his/her right to a B-sample. Minor offences subject to administrative sanctioning are not reviewed by the Judicial Committee and do not appear in this table.
