  • Summary

  • What happens when an award of an Olympic medal decision is overturned? In this gripping episode of Arbitration Talk, CAS arbitrators Jim Carter and Kristen Thorsness join host Rich Silberberg to unpack the most highly disputed medal award of the Paris 2024 Olympics.

    A protest over scoring in the women’s gymnastics floor exercise event final led to a shocking series of reversals, leaving three athletes in limbo and setting the stage for a controversial ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) followed by a now-pending appeal to the Swiss Supreme Court. Tune in as we break down the legal drama, the role of CAS in the resolution of disputes arising at the Olympic Games, and what might happen next in the resolution of this high-stakes dispute.
