FGR Judicializes Case Against Christian Nodal Over Alleged Fake Contracts, File 497/2025 Moves to Federal Court

The complaint from Universal Music over allegedly false contracts to claim early recordings now awaits a judge’s date for the initial hearing.

Overview

  • The investigation was lodged under criminal case 497/2025 at the Federal Control Court in the Centro de Justicia Penal Federal (Reclusorio Oriente), with the initial hearing to be scheduled.
  • Authorities and reports cite grafoscopic findings and a statement from notary Luis Fernando Ruibal Coker asserting the signatures on 32 certifications are not his and that he never worked for the Nodal family.
  • Universal’s lawyer says that if the court links the case to process, possible measures include a travel ban, surrender of passport or, in extreme scenarios, preventive detention.
  • The dispute centers on rights to three early albums (Me dejé llevar, Ahora, AYAYAY!), with media reporting the label seeks monetary compensation as part of its claims.
  • Christian Nodal publicly denied any break with his parents’ role in his career, while separate media allegations about his parenting and travel permissions for his daughter remain unverified in official records.
