Summary:
The second Board of Referees was not bound by the decision of the earlier BOR. It had to consider the evidence before it. The file before the second BOR contained evidence on the basis of which the BOR could decide as it did, without committing an error of principle.

Summary:
The second Board of Referees was not bound by the decision of the earlier BOR. It had to consider the evidence before it. The file before the second BOR contained evidence on the basis of which the BOR could decide as it did, without committing an error of principle. Decided by the FCA that the Umpire did not err by not intervening in the BOR's decision.
