Civil Appeals Court Reinstates Marcelo Moretti as San Lorenzo President After Ruling Acefalía Irregular

The appellate injunction orders him to call a new board meeting within 15 days under strict statutory conditions.

Overview

  • Judges voided the September 16 meeting that declared the club leaderless and suspended the Extraordinary Assembly.
  • Moretti must reconvene the Comisión Directiva within the deadline while complying with the statute under potential IGJ oversight.
  • The court increased the required bond to keep the injunction in place from 10 million to 40 million pesos.
  • Opposition leaders condemned his return, with César Francis denying political legitimacy and Ulises Morales urging a psychiatric evaluation after alleging a mocking message.
  • The crisis traces to an April hidden‑camera video showing a US$25,000 cash handoff to Moretti, with criminal probes and parallel legal disputes still active.
