Prominent sports lawyer Nick De Marco KC (Blackstone Chambers) has reviewed the second edition of The Code of the Court of Arbitration for Sport: Commentary, Cases and Materials, co-authored by Despina Mavromati and Matthieu Reeb (Wolters Kluwer, 2025), on LawInSport.
Here are some excerpts from the review:
“Known to me and many of my colleagues as the ‘Green Book’, or simply the ‘CAS Bible’”
“It is invaluable to any practitioner appearing before CAS”
“It is the one resource I always expect parties to cite and arbitrators to consult.”
“Coming from a common-law jurisdiction, many CAS procedures and aspects of its approach can initially appear foreign and, at times, bewildering in a way they may not to practitioners trained in civil-law systems. That is why this book has always been my starting point in any case before CAS. The new edition remains one of the most important legal texts on my shelf, or in my bag.”
