Stephen Dank has failed to provide paperwork explaining his no show at this week's anti-doping appeals hearing.
Dank's appeals hearing was adjourned after he failed to appear at the tribunal, citing a family emergency.
The AFL wishes to advise it has not received any paperwork for the AFL Anti-Doping Appeal Board from Stephen Dank before today's deadline.

The Anti-Doping Appeal Board is expected to provide its ruling on the non-submission next week.
The AFL will await that ruling.

He claimed a family member had been admitted to hospital with a life threatening condition and was therefore unable to appear.
Dank had been given until November 26 to prove to the Appeal’s Board there was indeed a family emergency.
Hi failure to do so means his appeal against his lifetime ban from working in any sport in Australia or overseas is likely to be thrown out.
