Acun Ilıcalı and Fenerbahçe legal dispute continues

Overview

The legal dispute between businessman Acun Ilıcalı and Fenerbahçe SK regarding the usage rights of VIP box 217 has progressed to formal litigation. Following the opening of a main lawsuit at the Anadolu 10th Consumer Court on September 2, 2026, Fenerbahçe requested the removal of a previously finalized injunction. However, on September 4, 2026, the court rejected this request, ruling that the injunction must remain in effect.

Legal tensions have escalated regarding procedural conduct. Lawyer Hakan Öncel, representing Ilıcalı, characterized Fenerbahçe’s September 8, 2026, attempt to submit a petition to a previously closed file at the Istanbul Regional Court of Justice as “clearly contrary to procedure.” Öncel argued that once a main case is initiated, any requests to modify or lift an injunction must be handled exclusively by the court presiding over that main case.

Additionally, it was noted that Fenerbahçe had filed an individual application with the Constitutional Court regarding the injunction in late August.
