Got a burning question about the legal stuff behind the ASADA/ EFC investigation? Do the terms strict liability, Volenti non fit iniuria, waiver, balance of probabilities, onus of proof, evidentiary burden, show cause and so forth have your head in a spin? Wondering what recourse the players have if stood down, what defences they might be able to raise, what the process is for the appeal against the legality of the investigation or anything else related to the scandal and legal in nature?
This is your thread to ask. I'll do my best to answer what I can. Any other law speaking types are free to give their legal opinion as well naturally; the more the merrier and consensus is always a good thing.
Disclaimer: I'm not a party to the investigation, and most of what goes in here will be an educated legal guess, and an explanation (to the best of my abilities) of the legal principles and process during the investigation. In a nutshell, I could be wrong. Proceed at your own risk.
