Juventus and the Covisoc charter, the Tar agrees with Cherubini and Paratici-Corriere.it

Juventus scores a goal in view of the sentence of the College of Guarantee. Certainly premature to know if the move will have a decisive value but in the meantime a point in favor of the Juventus defence. The facts. The Lazio Tar accepted the appeal presented by Fabio Paratici and Federico Cherubini: in practice the letter from the Federal Prosecutor’s Office to Covisoc with the interpretative clarifications on the capital gains affair, it must be delivered to the defense lawyers. The secret paper is note 10940 dated April 14, 2021 in which Covisoc asked for clarifications on the subject. For Juventus, this document represents the real start of the investigation and therefore would be able to invalidate the investigation by the federal prosecutor which would have taken place after the times allowed by the Procedure.

The proceeding was in fact opened in October well beyond the permitted terms, i.e. 30 days for the entry of the news in a special register and 60 days for the duration of the investigations. Covisoc will now have to deliver the document to Juve’s lawyers within seven days. Until now, the bianconeri had asked to be able to view the document but the prosecutor Joseph Chin he had rejected the question explaining that it is not part of the documentation acquired as part of the disciplinary procedure. Covisoc defended itself in the acts of the appeal to the TAR as follows: The document to which access is requested was created by the federal prosecutor’s office. Your request was promptly addressed to this body as far as it is concerned. Please refer to the federal prosecutor’s office which will be able to fully express itself on the formalized request.

The Juventus lawyers had underlined the interest in defensive access in the present casein particular in the pending appeal of the revocation sentence, issued by the Federal Court of Appeal, precisely because the deed must be known before the sporting process is concluded.
