Supreme Court finally rules for Madrid over LaLiga TV rights

Supreme Court finally rules for Madrid over LaLiga TV rights Real Madrid has secured a definitive court victory against LaLiga. The Supreme Court has firmly upheld the nullity of the decisions made by the league’s president, Javier Tebas , which prevented the club from taking part in several key meetings on television rights during 2022. The First Chamber of the high court had already dismissed LaLiga’s appeal last April, confirming that Real Madrid’s participation rights had been violated. In addition, the courts made it clear that the club’s expulsion from those meetings of the audiovisual Supervisory Body was carried out without following the legally required procedure. Far from accepting the ruling, LaLiga made one last desperate move by filing a "motion for annulment" in an attempt to reopen the case. However, the Supreme Court flatly rejected this appeal, reminding LaLiga that this mechanism cannot be used to reargue something that has already been judged and settled. With this new judicial setback for the league, a long process has come to an end. The ruling confirms that Real Madrid’s position was correct from day one and puts a stop to LaLiga’s repeated attempts to justify measures that the judges have formally described as "contrary to law" .
