Appeals Court Reinstates Marcelo Moretti at San Lorenzo, Halts Assembly, Orders Board Reconvened in 15 Days

The ruling deems the club's power vacuum irregular to force a statutory do-over with possible IGJ oversight.

Overview

  • Argentina’s Civil Chamber revoked the first-instance decision, nullified the September 16 board meeting’s effects, and froze the Extraordinary Assembly.
  • The club’s board must be called back within 15 days by Moretti under Article 59 of the statute, with IGJ intervention possible if the process falters.
  • The court increased the bond required to keep the injunction in force, raising the amount to 40 million pesos.
  • Opposition figures signaled plans to appeal and argued the acefalia followed the statute, with public statements questioning Moretti’s legitimacy.
  • Moretti said he will resume duties and named Néstor Ortigoza as his vice president, a development that follows months of turmoil sparked by a hidden-camera cash video.
