The Paris Court of Appeal has upheld the fraud conviction of far-right National Front (RN) leader Marine Le Pen , a decision that could jeopardize her candidacy in France's 2027 presidential election.

The court imposed a 15-month ban on Le Pen from public office, including a year of wearing an electronic monitoring device.

The case relates to allegations of using European Parliament funds to pay her party's employees in France, instead of them performing parliamentary assistant duties.

In the initial trial, Le Pen and 24 other people, including former European Parliament members, assistants and accountants, were found guilty of a scheme that, according to the court, operated between 2004 and 2016.

The first decision had provided for Le Pen a five-year ban from public office and a four-year prison sentence, two of which were suspended.

During the appeal process, Le Pen denied that the National Party had created a system for embezzling European funds, stating that the party had acted in "complete good faith."

She has described the case as a "witch hunt" against her and her party, while some of her supporters have also sent threats to the judges.

Prosecutors, however, argued that after taking over the party from her father Jean-Marie Le Pen in 2011, Marine Le Pen had turned this way of using European funds into an organized system.

The appeals court's decision comes at a crucial moment for French politics, as Marine Le Pen was one of the leading figures in the race for the 2027 presidential election. If she cannot run, her party has new leader Jordan Bardella as an alternative.
