The dispute

This is a judgment of the Egyptian Court of Cassation dated 24 December 2019. Mohamed Abbas Ghazi Elewa El-Naggar brought the case against the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Mansoura Sporting Club and others. The published copy is an Arabic text whose machine-read version is mostly unreadable. The legible parts refer to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the International Council of Arbitration for Sport, "Lex Sportiva", the seat of arbitration, and the 1958 New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. The database entry links the case to Article V(1)(e) of the Convention, which deals with awards that are not yet binding or have been set aside or suspended at the seat. The text does not allow a reliable account of the facts, the arguments or the outcome.
