USADA alleged a possible claim against Dr. Brown but did not provide any indication of what that claim might be. Apparently they did this to try to make it impossible for Dr. Brown to appeal. I also do not see what legal claim USADA might have against Dr. Brown, and would expect Dr. Brown to oppose on that basis. If he can show there could be no USADA claim against him, that would also preserve his right of appeal.

Thanks for that. I agree that it looks like a confusing Texas mess.
I have been trying to figure out even what a potential claim could be, as I am fairly certain that Dr. Brown is not under USADA's sport jurisdiction. Tortuous interference is pretty much all I can come up with.
