At the time OM cheated and got punished, they wanted to bring their case to court.
There is rumours that UEFA and then FIFA threaten French Federation of Football if they didn't make OM comply.

Also, remember the Fc Sion case versus UEFA. UEFA made them their woman.

FFF can be threatened, but get a national court to back you and UEFA will find their manners.

Did you read the link with FC Sion case ? They got raped left and right despite swiss court.

https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2011/0913/284771-sion_celtic/ A Swiss regional court has ordered UEFA to re-admit Sion to the Europa League group stages, according to the club.
"The civil court has this morning ordered UEFA to admit FC Sion as a participant in the 2011-12 Europa League and to take all the measures necessary to include them in Group I of the UEFA Europa League for which FC Sion have qualified.
"The order has been declared immediately binding."
 
They didn't actually have the backing of a Swiss national court mate.
Yeah, they had swiss regional court backing only and when it went further, the court decided to side with CAS.

So, why is it sure that French court wouldn't do the same ?

Political capital and the fact that an EU court has stricter antitrust/competition/investment laws than a Swiss one.

But, in the meantime, they can still put you out of the competition.
They didn't let Sion come back during all the court battles.
This was UEFA stance back then : "This is ultimately about protecting clubs, the players and football itself," Platini said in a statement. "We cannot accept that if one individual club does not get its own way then it goes through any possible system to force its will on the others."

I can clearly see the same words uttered if PSG or City were to file a complaint in a civil court.
