Newcastle Falcons full-back Louis Brown has been given a three-game ban for his red card in his side's defeat at Bath.
The full-back was sent off after 35 minutes of the 55-19 loss to the Premiership leaders for a dangerous tackle on Bath winger Austin Emens.
Brown, 27, was handed the ban by an independent panel and will miss his side's games away to Saracens, at home to Gloucester and away to Leicester Tigers.
However, if he completes the World Rugby Coaching Intervention Programme, his ban will be reduced to two games.
