July 9, 2020 - SDRCC 2018 CCES vs Dominika Jamnicky & Triathlon Canada - Final Award
August 16, 2019
In June 2018 the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Triathlon Athlete Dominika Jamnicky after her sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Clostebol.
After notification a provisional suspension was ordered. The Athlete filed a statement with evidence in her defence and she was heard for the SDRCC Doping Tribunal.
The Athlete accepted the test result and denied the intentional use of the substance. She argued that the positive test was the result of contaminated meat in Australia or Canada.
The CCES contended that the Athlete failed to establish the source of Clostebol nor the that the violation was not intentional.
On 31 May 2019 the SDRCC Doping Tribunal in this Partial Award decides that the Athlete has not discharged her burden of proving the source of her positive test. However the Arbitrator deemed that the Athlete indeed has discharged her burden of proving that her positive test was not intentional.
Hereafter, as agreed by the Parties, they made submissions as to the consequences that should follow from this Partial Award.
