Moretti returns as San Lorenzo president after court ruling | OneFootball

Marcelo Moretti returns as president of San Lorenzo after the Civil Chamber accepted the precautionary measure, understanding that «the alleged vacancy of the club was irregular» and that the process «should be rolled back until the Board of Directors meets again legitimately and in accordance with the Statute».

This Monday, the Justice overturned the first instance ruling and ordered that the Board of Directors be convened again, this time regularly and under the presidency of Marcelo Moretti, who must resume his position. Additionally, it suspended the effects of the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Assembly of Representatives and the call for the scheduled Extraordinary Assembly.

The Chamber accepted the precautionary measure filed by Moretti, in which he presented a “plausibility of the right” sufficient and that there was a “danger in delay” if allowed to proceed with a “fictitious” vacancy. Therefore, the court considered that there were sufficient elements to suspect that Moretti had been displaced without complying with statutory steps.

In his statement, Moretti argued that there was no real vacancy, as there were still available substitutes on all lists to fill the vacant positions. He also denounced a climate of pressure and harassment during the meeting on September 16, with resignations that occurred “under coercion.”

Following this, the Justice ordered a new Board of Directors meeting to be convened within a maximum period of 15 days, under the conditions of the Statute and with supervision by the General Inspection of Justice (IGJ) in case of irregularities.

Furthermore, the Chamber also increases the required bond from 10 to 40 million pesos, an amount that Moretti must cover to keep the precautionary measure in force.

The fact is that, given this scenario, Moretti returns as president of San Lorenzo, at least until the core of the conflict is resolved.
