The Civil Court 51 determined that there are no reasons for the businessman to not be able to resume his duties. Thus, after the classic match, the necessary resignations could be confirmed for the call to elections if the president insists on returning to the Cyclone.

A day before what will be a new edition of the classic against Huracán, San Lorenzo continues to be institutionally convulsed. This is because, in the last hours of Thursday, the Justice pronounced on the declarative action of certainty requested by Marcelo Moretti and, although it dismissed the resource, it did so on the grounds that there are no reasons or uncertainty that prevent the businessman from being president of the Cyclone.

In light of this, the institutional chaos grows, with a Board of Directors at war with its president and the possibility of the latent headlessness facing next week, with many resignations conditioned on his continuity or not in the club.

Specifically, Civil Court 51 pronounced on the resource presented by Moretti, in which the businessman asked the Justice to clarify the uncertainty about whether he could be president of the club or not, in the context of his leave and the investigation for fraudulent administration against him. The response he received was the rejection of his resource, but on the grounds that there is no such uncertainty.

"It is clear that the merely declarative action promoted by the plaintiff is inadmissible. It is that, from his own words it arises that there is no act or administrative or judicial decision that prevents him from exercising the position of president of the sports entity sued", indicates the ruling. In fact, they point out that the leave was taken by Moretti's own decision, in the same way as he communicated about his cessation.

Regardless of what happens at the institutional level, it remains to be seen how the Nuevo Gasómetro reacts on Saturday, when the Cyclone faces Huracán for the Clausura Tournament. The rejection of Moretti so far has been total, with chants from the stands and the constant call for elections. Even, the fans have marched against the club president. Thus, a heated atmosphere is expected from the stands, for a duel that is already more than a match.
