The Supreme Court in France upheld another conviction for Nicolas Sarkozy, the one for the "Bigamy" affair.

The former president will have to serve another sentence, for limited freedom of movement for 6 months under the supervision of an electronic bracelet.

Sarkozy was found guilty of spending twice the funds allowed by the electoral code for the 2012 presidential campaign, where he failed to be elected to a second term.

The legal limit was 22.5 million euros, but investigations revealed the expenditure of 43 million euros, which he had hidden by collaborating with the marketing firm "Bigmaljo".

This is a different trial from the one discussed in recent weeks, which concerned a criminal conspiracy to receive illegal funds from Gaddafi's Libya during his first successful election campaign against Ségolène Royal. In that trial, Sarkozy was convicted at first instance, served 20 days in prison, and was released after reaching the age limit (70) and because he did not pose a flight risk. Sarkozy has appealed the case and will be retried from March 16 to June 3, 2026.

Following the Supreme Court's decision upholding Sarkozy's conviction, his lawyers announced that they are assessing with the former president the possibility of filing a final appeal before the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
