Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the CAS had jurisdiction over the appeal against the CFA doping decision through the CFA/FIFA statutes.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The CFA statutes, read with the FIFA statutes, validly incorporated an appeal route to CAS for doping decisions.
Motivazione estratta
The Court accepted incorporation by reference in sports arbitration. CFA statutes made FIFA rules applicable, and FIFA Statutes Arts. 63(5)-(6) expressly allow WADA and FIFA to appeal final doping decisions to CAS. This sufficed under Art. R47 CAS Code.
