The IAAF continues to complain about how USATF handles doping cases. If Ljungqvist, senior vice-president of the IAAF really believes what he says ("We've had lawyers look into the system in the United States when we had earlier cases there and those lawyers were not at all convinced that there is such a thing as a confidentiality clause in their law,"); It would see to me that there is a simple and straightforward way around this impass. The IAAF could offer to indemnify the USATF for any and all losses resulting from legal actions about this issue. Then USATF could stop worrying about being sued, and IAAF could handle the results.
