Appeals Court Reinstates Marcelo Moretti as San Lorenzo President, Orders New Board Meeting in 15 Days

The order is provisional, requiring a 40‑million‑peso bond with possible IGJ oversight.

Overview

  • The Civil Appeals Chamber revoked the first‑instance ruling that validated a leadership vacancy and reinstated Marcelo Moretti to the presidency on a precautionary basis.
  • It suspended the effects of the September 16 board meeting and the Assembly’s subsequent actions, including the call to an Extraordinary Assembly.
  • The court ordered a new Comisión Directiva session within 15 days, to be convened by Moretti under the club statute, with IGJ intervention if irregularities arise.
  • Judges raised the security bond required to keep the injunction in force from 10 million to 40 million pesos.
  • The decision relies on prima facie findings under a precautionary measure, while the criminal probe and governance dispute sparked by the April cash‑handoff video remain unresolved.
