GENEVA -- Italian lawyer Mino Auletta has been elected president of the
Court of Arbitration for Sport, beating out former World Anti-Doping
Agency chief **** Pound.

Auletta, who has been acting president of CAS, said by telephone from
Monaco that he received a majority of the votes at a meeting of the 19
members of the court's governing body. At least 10 votes were needed
to win.

Auletta, who will oversee the appointment of arbitrators for the
sports world's top appeals body, also defeated Swiss lawyer Robert
Briner and Sweden's Gunnar Werner to get the job.
