Sarkozy: Dismisses charges as 'lies'
The Court of Cassation in Paris was due to rule on whether a lower court was right to convict him of illegal financing in his failed 2012 reelection campaign.
If it upholds Sarkozy's conviction, he will serve a six-month term, possibly with an electronic bracelet.
Sarkozy, a one-term president from 2007-2012, has faced a series of legal challenges since leaving office.
Yesterday's hearing is his last chance to escape a second conviction after he was sent to jail last month in a separate case, related to an earlier election campaign.
