Overview

• The Court of Cassazione rejected Massimiliano Allegri's final appeal, confirming Claudia Ughi's acquittal and denying Allegri any compensation.
• The case centered on Allegri's accusations that Ughi misused €210,000 of child support payments for non-child-related expenses between 2019 and 2021.
• Earlier rulings by the Turin Tribunal and appellate court had already cleared Ughi, citing insufficient evidence of misappropriation.
• Allegri's claims included allegations that Ughi used funds for her elder daughter's university fees, real estate purchases, and investments, which were deemed part of broader family needs.
• The Supreme Court's decision may set a precedent for future family law cases involving maintenance payments in blended families.
