contents New general relativity (NGR) is a torsion-based modification of general relativity whose Lagrangian depends on three free parameters, $(c_{a}, c_{v}, c_{t})$. A subset of the parameter space is physically admissible, namely that which simultaneously ensures ghost-freedom, propagation of a spin-2 mode, and a consistent Newtonian limit. In this work we analyze static and spherically symmetric configurations in NGR, both in vacuum and in the presence of a perfect fluid and an electromagnetic field, under the assumption of the existence of a local black-hole horizon. We find that the mere existence of such configurations forces the free parameters into regions associated with known pathological models: theories that either contain ghost instabilities, do not propagate a spin-2 mode, or lack a Newtonian limit. The remaining geometries are regular at the horizon, so the obstruction is not a breakdown of the geometry but a breakdown of the underlying theory. We therefore conclude that, within the class of models examined, NGR does not admit physically meaningful non-trivial black holes distinct from those of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity.
