I firmly believe in my innocence,&#8221; Sun told Xinhua.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I will definitely appeal to let more people know the truth.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The CAS upheld an appeal by the <strong>World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)<\/strong>, ruling that Sun had refused to cooperate with drug sample collectors during a controversial visit to his home in September 2018.<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese Swimming Association, which in the CAS hearing last November, stood accused of threatening the lead anti-doping officer who visited Sun&#8217;s home in September, has said that it will support Sun in his appeal at the Swiss Court.<\/p>\n<p>Sun&#8217;s lawyers later confirmed that an appeal would be lodged with the the Tribunal &#8220;within 30 days&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>It is rare for the Swiss court to overturn CAS judgments, on grounds of limited jurisdiction: among cases overturned, the issues have centred on commercial rights, financial penalties and human rights such as in the case of Caster Semenya. For the Swiss court to override a judgment based on the WADA Code and Anti-doping rules and procedures would set a precedent in swimming.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Swiss Federal Tribunal &#8211; A Brief Explanation<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The Swiss Federal Tribunal (SFT)<\/strong> has the power to issue a stay on any decisions in sport pending judgement of the Swiss court. That could leave the door to Tokyo 2020 ajar. However, in past sports cases, the Swiss court has only issued a stay where there have been no objection from the opposing party, in this case WADA. It is highly unlikely that that WADA would let a plea for stay in Sun\u2019s case go unchallenged under the circumstances: where other cases have involved issues of financial recompense or human rights, the swimmer\u2019s case and judgement speaks to the WADA Code, the CAS decision based on anti-doping rules not wider international conventions and precedents.<\/li>\n<li class=\"abstract-text\"><strong>The Tribunal\u2019s role:<\/strong> The CAS is subject to the more general legal framework of international arbitration in Switzerland regulated through the Swiss Private International Law Act (Swiss PILA). The Swiss PILA emphasizes the parties\u2019 autonomy in the conduct of the arbitration proceedings and limits the intervention of state courts to the strict minimum. Within this context, arbitral awards are final upon their notification and can only be challenged before the Swiss Federal Tribunal (SFT) on a very limited number of grounds, exhaustively enumerated in Art. 190(2) PILA. Although a \u201climited\u201d role tis bestowed upon the SFT, Switzerland\u2019s Supreme Court has so far rendered numerous judgments in motions to set aside CAS awards.\u00a0The SFT has significant influence on how CAS operates and CAS judges are aware of relevant conditions when they make their judgements. The SFT controls both the legality of CAS as an arbitral institution and the legality of CAS awards.\u00a0The SFT may confirm, reject or more generally interpret some of the procedural provisions of the CAS Rules and the law applicable to the merits of cases.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/sportlegis.com\/2017\/08\/15\/4a_6682016-24-july-2017-player-x-v-z\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">An example of the types of cases that have resulted in CAS decisions being overturned<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.insidethegames.biz\/articles\/1074397\/swiss-federal-tribunal-reject-ioc-appeal-against-cas-decision-to-clear-legkov-of-doping\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The IOC is among parties that challenged CAS rulings and lost<\/a>, while the Tribunal has a strong record of upholding not overturning specific doping cases decided on by the CAS, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thestar.com.my\/sport\/other-sport\/2011\/01\/10\/valverde-loses-doping-case-at-swiss-supreme-court\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here one of several cases in point<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sun Yang, the Chinese swimmer banned for eight years in a Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) decision handed down today, responded by saying that he will &#8220;definitely&#8221;
