I just read it. What happened?
Scary part is that the brothers judges lots of shows for the TJLA.
If you have ever seen any animals from his ranch, they were missing brahman characteristics in my opinion. I ask my 7 year old niece one time which animal didn't fit in the class, and she immediately chose the one from the brothers ranch. So as to why, I can only speculate.
ASA Bylaw 2E:

F I N A L L Y. ASA needs to grow some you-know-what's. This has been happening with Simbrahs for years now.

I read the By-Law, but what did they do to get suspended?

They've sold show heifers to juniors that are registered and represented as Simbrahs, but are in fact Simmentals. This has been proven on numerous occassions when DNA was done on the calves, but ASA didn't want to do anything because they threatened a lawsuit. Even though this is clearly a rule of ASA.
