A court has upheld the lawsuit brought by the Shotokan Cieza-Kenwa club and by former Vice President Antonio Pérez Aroca against the Karate Federation of the Region of Murcia and has annulled the Ordinary General Assembly of March 5, 2020, “and consequently, the nullity of all agreements adopted in the same agreement, proceeding to redress the situation immediately prior to that date in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution of the Federation ». Bartolomé López, president of the Federation, had resigned days before the aforementioned meeting was held, but changed his mind the day before and announced that he would return, when he could no longer do so as his departure had already been ratified. The aforementioned meeting “took place without respecting the time requirements established by the Constitution of the Federation,” says Judge Ana Belén Carrión’s verdict. During the March 5, 2020 meeting, López removed Vice President Antonio Pérez and Secretary David Rodríguez from their posts, whom he did not allow to attend the meeting, decisions he was unable to make. According to the report by Aníbal Jesús Torregrosa Meseguer, legal adviser to the Ministry of Sports, requested by the court, a series of irregularities have occurred that should annul the approved agreements, “since it must be clear that the president had resigned and therefore he could not convene that meeting, nor could he preside over it» Similarly, Torregrosa adds that, having resigned earlier, López “could not fire the Secretary, much less the Vice President who appoints him and the General Assembly dismisses”. Nor was there a sufficient quorum, according to the legal adviser, who emphasized in his report, among other things, that “votes against despite the express request to do so” were not registered either.
