LaLiga faced a central administrative court dispute over its televised regulations, with the ruling challenging the scope and application of those rules. The case focused on how LaLiga’s broadcasting policies intersect with broader legal standards and regulatory frameworks, and it prompted detailed scrutiny of the reasoning behind the protections the league asserts for its televised content.
The decision referenced core legal principles such as legitimacy, typicality, the presumption of innocence, the assessment of guilt, and the hierarchical structure that governs regulatory compliance. In explaining its stance, the court noted that the Television Broadcasting Regulation remains fully compliant with applicable laws, underscoring the regulation’s alignment with statutory requirements and its enforcement within the established legal order.
Concerning the indirect removal of the National Professional Football League Television Broadcasting Regulation, the court documented that the measure received definitive approval through the Decision of the Supreme Sports Council dated 7-26-2018. The narrative from the judiciary indicates that the claims challenging this approval should be rejected, reinforcing the authority of the prior decision and its lasting effect on how football broadcasting is managed at the national level.
The official LaLiga statement articulated a clear position: the objection raised by Real Madrid, and similar concerns in related areas tied to the implementation of Royal Decree Law 5/2015 as it applies to LaLiga, were found to be inadmissible or to have been rejected. The statement also noted that the legal process in these matters has proceeded through the appropriate channels, emphasizing that the regulatory framework governing televised football remains intact and enforceable under current law.
