Bygmalion affair: while waiting for the Court of Cassation, Éric Cesari (LR) remains elected in Courbevoie. Deputy mayor since 2008, the former director general of the UMP, sentenced on appeal to six months in prison with reduced sentence and five years of ineligibility.

“I cannot bring myself to accept this decision which, in my eyes, is unfair,” insists Cesari, who has continually maintained for ten years that he was not responsible for the system of false invoices.
