希尼爾翻譯公司（www.marshallsfreshproduce.com）2016年7月24日了解到：The head of the International Monetary Fund, Christine Lagarde, will stand trial over a state payout to the French tycoon Bernard Tapie, an appeals court has ruled.

據(jù)一家上訴法院裁定，國(guó)際貨幣基金組織總裁拉加德將受審，原因是其對(duì)法國(guó)巨頭伯納德·塔皮給與一項(xiàng)國(guó)家支出。

She is charged with negligence over the award to Mr Tapie of 404m euro ($445m; 339m pound) in 2008 when she was France’s economy minister.

拉加德被指控在2008年擔(dān)任法國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)部長(zhǎng)之時(shí)，因其疏忽判給了塔皮4.04億歐元（約合4.45億美元，3.39億英鎊）。

Ms Lagarde had appealed against a lower court ruling from December.

之前曾有一家低級(jí)法院對(duì)此作出裁決，而拉加德自從去年12月以來一直在上訴。

She is now expected to appear before a special court for government ministers.

現(xiàn)在拉加德有望出現(xiàn)在一個(gè)為政府部長(zhǎng)設(shè)立的專門法庭。

The case stems from Mr Tapie’s sale of his majority stake in the sports equipment company, Adidas, which was handled by the state-owned bank, Credit Lyonnais.

此案起源于伯納德·塔皮，他曾出售了手中掌握的運(yùn)動(dòng)器材公司阿迪達(dá)斯的大部分股份，這筆交易由法國(guó)國(guó)有銀行里昂信貸銀行經(jīng)辦。

The businessman sued for compensation after claiming he was defrauded by the bank and received too little from the sale in 1993.

伯納德·塔皮聲稱他被這家銀行欺騙了，并且從這場(chǎng)1993年的出售交易中所獲太少，因此他起訴要求賠償。

Ms Lagarde was responsible for the rare decision to appoint an arbitration panel, rather than allowing the courts to decide on the dispute.

當(dāng)時(shí)法國(guó)政府采取了一個(gè)少見的決定，任命一個(gè)仲裁小組而不是讓法院來解決這一爭(zhēng)議事件，而拉加德要為當(dāng)時(shí)的這個(gè)決定負(fù)責(zé)。

She served as economy minister when President Nicolas Sarkozy was in office. Mr Tapie was a supporter of Mr Sarkozy and there were allegations this may have played a role in her decision.

拉加德當(dāng)時(shí)擔(dān)任法國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)部長(zhǎng)，薩科齊是法國(guó)總統(tǒng)。塔皮是薩科齊的支持者，因此有人指責(zé)說正是因此拉加德才做出這一決定。

She has always denied any wrongdoing, saying she acted in the interest of the state and with respect for the law.

拉加德一直否認(rèn)自己有任何不當(dāng)行為，聲稱自己的行為符合國(guó)家利益、并且在法律允許的范圍之內(nèi)。

After learning of the decision by France’s highest appeals court, Ms Lagarde’s lawyer, Patrick Maisonneuve, said he was convinced that the trial would show she was innocent.

在知曉法國(guó)最高上訴法庭的裁決之后，拉加德的律師帕特里克表示說，他相信審判將證明拉加德是無辜的。

Reacting to the latest ruling, the IMF said the executive board continued to express confidence in her ability to carry out her duties and was being briefed on developments.

國(guó)際貨幣基金組織也對(duì)這一最新裁決做出了回應(yīng)，指出執(zhí)行委員會(huì)仍然對(duì)拉加德有信心，相信她有能力履行自己的責(zé)任。國(guó)際貨幣基金組織表示將關(guān)注事態(tài)的發(fā)展。

Ms Lagarde, who was given a second five-year term as IMF managing director in January, is the third head of the organisation to face legal proceedings.

今年一月，拉加德開始了其作為國(guó)際貨幣基金組織總裁的第二個(gè)五年任期，是該組織第三位面對(duì)法律訴訟的總裁。

For his part, Mr Tapie is currently appealing against a French court’s decision to dismiss the settlement at the heart of the case.

在塔皮方面，他目前正在對(duì)一家法國(guó)法院的裁決進(jìn)行上述，這家法院曾判決駁回這起案件中的核心解決方案。
