Here is the official statement from the National Motorsports Appeals Panel (Feb. 21, 2015)

"The National Motorsports Appeals Panel today heard and considered the appeal of driver Kurt Busch.

The penalty concerns Section 12.1.a: Actions detrimental to stock car racing; 12.8: Behavioral penalty.

The penalty stems from activities last year involving Kurt Busch that resulted in a decision by the Family Court of the State of Delaware to issue an Order of Protection of Abuse against him.

The penalty is an indefinite suspension.

The Appellant appealed both penalties.

Upon hearing the testimony, the National Motorsports Appeals Panel decided that the Appellant violated the rules set forth in the penalty notice. The Panel therefore decided to uphold the original penalty assessed by NASCAR.

The panel consisted of the following three individuals:
Mr. Paul Brooks
Ms. Lyn St. James
Mr. Kevin Whitaker
Kurt Busch presented his position to the panel.

Representing NASCAR was Jim Cassidy, Senior Vice President of Racing Operations.
The Appellate Administrator is NASCAR Vice President George Silbermann.

Kurt Busch has the right to appeal the decision to the Final Appeals Officer, Mr. Bryan Moss. Kurt Busch must inform NASCAR of his intent to do so within the guidelines provided to him.

The Final Appeals Officer has indicated that he would hear the final appeal, if requested, this evening at the International Motorsports Center in Daytona Beach, Florida."
