  14. For example, they advocate the removal of the closed list of CAS arbitrators, proposing a list of presidents instead, Rigozzi and Hasler in Rigozzi et al. (2013), pp. 887–888 and the participation of stakeholders and users of CAS in the drafting of the CAS Code, Rigozzi and Hasler, in Rigozzi et al. (2013), p. 889.

  15. The recent Pechstein decision by the Landgericht München should be seen as a warning shot.
