The name of the singer Christian Nodal is making headlines after appearing before Mexican authorities and not being linked to a process after being accused by Universal Music of alleged document forgery.

And we cannot forget that the battle between the renowned record label and the artist dates back to 2021, when both parties tried to prove that they owned the copyrights to the songs that catapulted him to stardom, including: “Adios, amor” and “Aquibajo”.

After gathering evidence, Universal Music stated that Christian Nodal and his parents, Silvia Cristina Nodal Jimenez and Jesus Jaime Gonzalez Terrazas, who were his managers at the time, presented 32 false contracts to support the lawsuit they filed just months after the singer began a new working relationship with Sony Music.

In order to follow up on the case, the regional Mexican singer appeared before the court in Hearing Room Four of the Federal Criminal Justice Center at the Reclusorio Oriente prison in Mexico City, accompanied by his criminal lawyer, Erik Rauda.

His parents, Silvia Cristina Nodal Jimenez and Jesus Jaime Gonzalez Terrazas, who are part of the same case, also appeared at the hearing.

However, the hearing, which was originally scheduled for 2:35 pm, ended delayed and starting seven hours later. After a brief introduction, a new recess was called, delaying the start of the hearing until midnight. During the more than 14-hour hearing, the judge heard arguments from both sides and ruled that there was no evidence to support the charges against Nodal and his parents, as there was insufficient evidence to establish that any crime had been committed. It should be noted that had Nodal and his parents been formally charged with using a falsified copy of a public document, they would have had to appear periodically before the authorities and face a criminal trial lasting several months, potentially resulting in up to 15 years in prison.
