In this (absurd) scenario, it's tricky. Imagine Legia wins at CAS regarding the expulsion from CL. UEFA can't put them back in the competition just like that.
Ideally, evey ban FIFA/UEFA dictates should wait for it to be approved by CAS first, since most cases end up there anyway. Why would you execute a decision that is not definitive, and make yourself liable? But FIFA/UEFA are stupid.
Fifa/Uefa aren't stupid they make decisions that can be overturned by CAS it makes them look powerful while not annoying big teams/FA's or Make decisions that suit them in situations where there is no time to overturn the decisions.
