A Paris court convicted former Christian Dior designer John Galliano today (September 8, 2011) of making anti-Semitic insults in a bar -- but gave him only a suspended sentence because he apologized to the victims -- according to the New York Post website.
Galliano -- who did not attend the announcement of the verdict -- was given no prison time.
He was, however, ordered to pay $23,200 in court fees for the complainants -- three individuals and five anti-racism associations -- plus a symbolic $1.40 in damages to each one.
The accusations earlier this year cost Galliano, 50, his job at the luxury house and roiled the fashion world.
