Marine Le Pen and other members of her National Rally party were found guilty of using money intended for parliamentary assistants to pay party staff between 2004 and 2016. The lower court sentenced Le Pen to a prison term, suspended pending appeal, and imposed a five-year ban on holding elected office, effectively preventing her from contesting the 2027 presidential election unless the ruling is overturned. She denies any wrongdoing, is appealing the verdict, and remains determined to mount a fourth presidential bid.
