“They have been going to court on the legal side but finally they argue that there has been too much work accumulated due to the pandemic issue, which was the reason why many files on issues that are there are delayed, large amounts of files,” explained the municipal official.

He rejected that the case of the lawsuit for the possession of the Teodoro Mariscal Stadium has been lost by the municipality.

“No, because once they notify us, our duty is to be transparent, if he is lost, we have to return, that cannot be hidden, and if he wins the same, we have to say it, it is an issue that goes a long way, because he would prove us right.

González Zatarain assured that in this particular, there is still no resolution, and when there is, there is the commitment to teach it to make it known.

History

On April 6, 2020, the Municipal Government took possession of the Teodoro Mariscal stadium by withdrawing the 25-year concession from the Toledo Corro family, who filed a complaint with the courts.

However, on July 15 of that same year, it was returned so that the ball games would take place. In addition, in February of the following year the Caribbean Series was going to take place in Mazatlán, for which the mayor Luis Guillermo Benítez Torres endorsed the commitment before the authorities of the Cabildo Series that the possession of the stadium did not run any risk.

Once the Caribbean Series was over, the company “Espectáculos Costa del Pacífico” did not return the stadium, as promised, and the City Council filed a lawsuit in court.
