On 12 December 2014, the FIM International Disciplinary Court (CDI) found that Mr Stewart, Jr. who tested positive for amphetamine at the round of the 2014 Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, held at the Century Link Field, Seattle, Washington, had committed an anti-doping rule violation under the FIM Anti-Doping Code.
Mr Stewart has been sanctioned by the FIM CDI with a period of ineligibility of 16 (sixteen) months commencing on 12 April 2014 (date of the collection of the sample) and ending on 11 August 2015 at midnight.
After the full Decision was notified to Mr Stewart, Jr. on 12 December 2014, he filed an appeal against the FIM CDI decision before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), based in Lausanne.
On 27 April 2015, the CAS issued its full reasoned Award in the case of James Stewart, Jr. v. the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) (attached).
The CAS upheld the FIM CDI Decision confirming the 16-month ban imposed by the FIM CDI on James Stewart, Jr.
