Based upon the supplied communications, it's unclear to me whether there was an
actual application made along with the submitted card or not. Jarda claims not,
but based on the disqualification, if it followed its own rules, ARRL must have
received one because...
The DXCC AWARD APPLICATION form states, "Required With Each New Submission and
Endorsements"
If the "required" application/fees and affirmed signature weren't submitted,
then he did not make an application and whether or not the card is bogus should
not matter.
So there should be one of two outcomes:
1) He submitted a signed application affirming that he followed all of the
rules, but submitted a bogus card. His removal is justified.
2) He did not submit a signed application but only asked for an opinion about
the card. He should be reinstated.
Seems pretty simple to me.

Well let me be the 2nd then to comment,
Its clear as friggin day, guy sent in a doctored card, pasted a printer label
over the top of a QSO for another band, ARRL saw it in person and said
"Fake" card, and disqualified him
His gripe is he was just sending it to "test" them to check it out, didnt
really
mean to submit it,
If they would have just passed it through and given credit, do you think he
would have said one word.
No translation needed, simple easy logic. Attitude or tone BS,
Facts are facts.
