Jordan Chiles has been granted an appeal by the Swiss Federal Supreme Court over the ruling that revoked her bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

The court's decision kicks the case back to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), giving Chiles a chance to reclaim her medal.

What happened?

The controversy began when Chiles' coach didn't file a score inquiry within the allotted time, leading to the revocation of her medal.

Chiles' legal team argued that there was conclusive video evidence that she had made a verbal inquiry before the expiry of the regulatory one-minute time limit.

Why it matters for Jordan Chiles

The appeal is a significant victory for Chiles, who has been fighting to have her medal reinstated for almost two years.

Attorney Maurice Suh said the court's decision recognizes that Chiles was the rightful winner of the bronze medal.

Chiles' legal team is hailing the decision as a victory, with Suh stating that the court's recognition of the video evidence is a major breakthrough.

What comes next?

The case will now be reheard by the CAS, which will consider the new evidence and make a final decision.

Chiles is focusing on the present, having recently finished third on Season 34 of Dancing With the Stars.

She has not yet decided whether she will compete in the 2028 Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

Chiles told E! News in February 2025 that she is taking it "year by year, month by month" and will see what the future holds.

The 24-year-old gymnast is determined to fight for her medal and be her best self.

Chiles' bronze medal controversy began on August 5, 2024, when she was initially awarded the medal.

Her coaches submitted an inquiry on her behalf, but it was revoked due to a technicality.

The CAS will now reconsider the evidence and make a final decision on Chiles' medal.

Chiles is waiting for the CAS to make a decision, but she is hopeful that she will be able to reclaim her medal.

The Swiss Federal Supreme Court's decision is a major step forward for Chiles, who has been fighting for justice for almost two years.
