The president removed from Corinthians, Augusto Melo, suffered another defeat in court on Tuesday (29). The São Paulo Court of Justice (TJ-SP) denied the injunction filed by the defense to suspend the club’s deliberative council meeting that began the impeachment process against him.

Melo’s defense – which recently – also maintained that the chairman of the Deliberative Council, Romeu Tuma Jr., would be removed at the time, which would make the invalid call. Tuma, however, was on the carho normally.
Judge Enéas Costa Garcia, rapporteur of the case in the 1st Chamber of Private Law, rejected the urgent request and maintained the regular progress of the dismissal process. For the magistrate, the need for immediate court intervention to nullify the process conducted internally by the club was not proven. The information was released by the bid! and confirmed.
