Hello everyone, and apologies for taking so long to post an update! Training and legal work on this case have taken up a LOT of my time, but I'm happy to give you all some good news! So, on December 10, in about 2 days, my attorneys and I will have our second hearing in the court's of Lausanne. It will be a short but important hearing, where the court will, for the first time, look at some substantive matters in this case. Nothing earth shattering at this point, but I'm truly glad to see the wheels of justice turning, and turning in our favor. Knock on wood, this will keep on going. I also wanted to share with you all the positive coverage we've received from the global media including major publications like the Denver Post and VICE. Here below are a few links to articles in English, German, and Austrian. Denver Post: http://www.denverpost.com/outdoors/ci_28819373/olympian-sues-ioc-reinstate-snowboarding-racing VICE News: https://sports.vice.com/en_us/article/a-snowboarder-sues-the-ioc German News: http://www.deutschlandfunk.de/justin-reiter-allein-gegen-das-ioc.1346.de.html?dram:article_id=332234 I'm also thrilled that several TV stations picked the story, and featured it on prime time news. Here are a couple of links for those: Colorado 9 News: http://www.9news.com/story/sports/olympics/2015/11/07/olympian-fights-to-keep-event-in-2018-games/75403588/ Utah KSL: https://www.ksl.com/?sid=37450140&nid=294&fm=home_page&s_cid=toppick3 Keep the good thoughts coming and the positive energy.... together, we will prevail.
