Appeals Court Rejects Gatlin's Appeal

ATLANTA (AP) - June 26, 2008 The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Thursday that Gatlin has not shown he meets the "applicable standard for such an injunction."

Gatlin has been banned from track through 2010 for doping violations and sought to run in trials starting Saturday. He said he had been discriminated against under the Americans with Disabilities Act because his first doping violation was for taking prescribed medication to treat attention deficit disorder.
