Scotland will appeal the 12-week suspension to flanker Martin Leslie for kneeing an opponent in the head, a team statement says.
Leslie was kicked out of the Rugby World Cup on Wednesday after a disciplinary hearing following Scotland's victory over the United States in Brisbane.
The 37-Test veteran was found to have deliberately dropped his knee into the face of US player Jason Keyter and was suspended from all rugby for three months.
Scotland plays France on Saturday before wrapping up its first round campaign against Fiji on November 1.
