But in a statement to AFL.com.au, the authority indicated it was readying to negotiate with the 34 past and present Essendon players caught up in the supplements scandal.
"Once ASADA has determined whether the Federal Court appeal will affect the issuance of show-cause notices, it is the intention of ASADA CEO Ben McDevitt to provide the players with amended notices," an ASADA spokesperson said.
"The amended notices will set a new date for the lodgement of submissions and include a comprehensive summary of the evidence in support of the case against the players.
"Should players and their lawyers want to engage with ASADA following a review of the amended notices, we are open to that prospect as we are with any athlete facing a possible doping violation.”
Justice Susan Kenny will hear the application at 10.15am on Thursday October 9.
Lawyers for Hird lodged a notice of appeal against Justice John Middleton's decision rejecting Essendon's and Hird's claim that the ASADA probe into the Bombers' 2012 supplements program was unlawful.
Hird is hopeful the matter can be heard quickly, pushing for a court date towards the end of October.
