The dispute in front of Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne (CAS) between Namibia Premier League (NPL) and Namibia Football Association (NFA) resulted in an appeal filed by the NPL being dismissed
The Sole Arbitrator, Prof. Luigi Fumagalli, issued an award in the present matter on 21 June 2021.
In the CAS Award, the Sole Arbitrator concluded that, due to the fact that the NPL was effectively expelled from the NFA, which decision was not challenged in due course, the NPL had no standing to bring an appeal against the decision of the NFA to suspend the NPL. In view of the above, the appeal by the NPL was dismissed.
SILA International Lawyers represented NFA in the present dispute.
