Still succumbs, also to the Council of State, the University of Calabria in the dispute for The award of the Cash Service tender which will have to switch from Unicredit to the Centro Calabria Credit Credito Cooperative Bank which has an operational headquarters in the locality of Gercento di Catanzaro.
With a sentence filed today, the seventh section of Palazzo Spada rejected in “toto“The Unical appeal, supported by the intervention of the Unicredit banking giant, accepting the articulated theses carried out on behalf of the Calabrian bank by the lawyers Alfredo Gualtieri And Demetrio Verbaro of the forum of Catanzaro.
A first defeat was not enough, certified by the TAR and Council of State, because UNICAL had, for a second time, “preferred” Unicredit despite having to be excluded from the contract for clear irregularities.
In the long sentence, the judges of the Council of State, in confirming the decision of the Tar Calabria, said jurisprudential principles of significant importance not only for the banking world: 1) “After crediting the contracting station the participation requirement, it cannot, later and concluded, question it“; 2)”The banks operating in the context of a cooperative credit group do not need to enter into a turning contract, specific for the tender, with their own instrumental company, given that the related services are already carried out by the latter institutional and automatic by virtue of the role held within the group“.
Already in 2024 UNICAL remained unsuccessful in the judgment proposed by Banca Centro Calabria (always defended by Avv.Ti Alfredo Gualtieri and Demetrio Verbaro) against the award of the contract in Unicredit but, despite the Tar and Council sentences, he had reopened the procedure to exclude the Calabrian institute now a victorious result.
