The General Court of the European Union on Wednesday upheld a decision by the European Parliament requiring the recovery of 303,200 euros ($352,380) from the estate of late French leader Jean-Marie Le Pen.

The court ruled the money was unduly claimed during his time as a member of the European Parliament (MEP).
