Goaltender Ivan Fedotov drops court case over military conscription
It seems netminder Ivan Fedotov is resigned to completing his mandatory military service in Russia. The 25-year-old, who had signed a one-year deal with the Philadelphia Flyers back in April, was supposed to appear in a Russian court room Tuesday in a bid to overturn his conscription. However, Russian media is reporting that the case has been dropped.
A trial initiated by Fedotov's side was to have taken place on Tuesday. However, the parties did not show up at the trial, and the plaintiff filed a motion to dismiss the suit, which was accepted by the court.
In July, Fedotov was drafted into the army. He now serves in a unit in Severodvinsk. - MatchTV.ru

Fedotov, who won the KHL's Gagarin Cup last season as a member of CSKA Moscow, was arrested in St. Petersberg in the spring after the arrest of an official for allegedly selling fake military papers. There is still no official word on whether the deal he signed with Philadelphia has been terminated, although there really isn't much choice in the matter, especially now that Fedotov appears ready to complete his service. Mandatory service in Russia is usually a two-year term. Many professional athletes and students are granted exemptions from the service. That was apparently not the case with Fedotov.
