Depardieu fined for falling off scooter in drink-driving case
A French court has fined Gerard Depardieu €4,000 and suspended his driver’s licence for six months in a drink-driving case that started when the actor fell off his scooter in Paris in November and ended up being taken to a police station.
Depardieu’s lawyer, Eric de Caumont, said he planned to appeal against today’s ruling. He said Depardieu, who was not at the hearing, was in Moscow filming.
