Deliberative Council president seeks CORI meeting over statute reform | OneFootball

Romeu Tuma Júnior, president of Corinthians’ Deliberative Council (CD), sent an official letter to the president of the Advisory Council (CORI), Miguel Marques e Silva, requesting the convening of an extraordinary meeting of the body. The information was initially reported by Meu Timão and confirmed by Central do Timão.

In the document, Tuma cites the need to continue debating Corinthians’ statutory reform, which has been stalled after a series of court rulings both in favor of and against calling the General Assembly of Members. It was supposed to have taken place on June 20, but ended up being suspended by an injunction from the São Paulo Court of Justice (TJ-SP).

In addition, when requesting the meeting with CORI, the president of the CD mentions the legal actions and a request from the members of the Statutory Reform Commission that they seek an amicable solution to the issue. According to the letter, the parties involved need to build a path that is favorable to the intentions of the Corinthians community as a whole, involving all the bodies that make up the club’s power structure through institutional dialogue.

Romeu Tuma Júnior also emphasized the intention of reaching a consensus in which the deliberations approved by the CD on the matter are preserved, at the meetings held between April and May this year. He also points to an amicable resolution as a necessary alternative, given the requests for judicial intervention at Corinthians, both in the club’s executive board and in its oversight and control bodies.

The website Meu Timão contacted Miguel Marques e Silva, president of CORI, to discuss the matter. He confirmed receipt of the document and said that, at the moment, he is studying whether or not to accept the request with other members of the body.
