MP-SP against injunction in bid for court intervention at Corinthians | OneFootball

In a statement dated last Monday (6), the São Paulo Public Prosecutor’s Office came out against granting urgent relief in the case seeking judicial intervention at Corinthians. Submitted to the 13th Civil Court, the document states that, at this time, there are not enough elements to justify the immediate adoption of the measure.

The lawsuit was filed based on allegations of “reckless management” in previous administrations, with possible damage to Corinthians’ assets. In light of this, the plaintiffs requested urgent relief for the appointment of a temporary intervenor, who would immediately take over the club’s administration.

In its analysis of the case, the Public Prosecutor’s Office acknowledged the social relevance of football and the legitimacy of its role in situations involving possible harm to collective interests. Even so, it considered that the current stage of the investigation does not allow for such a drastic measure. The agency emphasized that the proceeding is still in its initial phase, without the proper hearing of the defendant, which compromises a more in-depth assessment of the facts.

In this sense, the main basis of the statement is the lack of sufficient elements to justify the urgency of the intervention. In addition, the São Paulo Public Prosecutor’s Office draws attention to the institutional risks of a hasty decision. The agency warns that any eventual granting of the measure, followed by a later reversal, “could worsen the situation of institutional instability, to the detriment of the club’s own interests.”

Thus, the agency’s statement indicates that the case should proceed through the regular course, with a deeper investigation and guarantees of adversarial proceedings before any decision on intervention. The position does not close the case, but it stands as a relevant indication within the judicial process.

The document is signed by prosecutors Andre Pascoal da Silva and Luiz Ambra Neto and highlights the need for caution in analyzing measures that may directly affect the administrative structure of one of the country’s main sports institutions.
