Cesar Fernandes Borges Filho was sentenced at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on 5 November 2024 to three years for seven counts of deception, with the final year suspended, and was jailed for the unsuspended term. Judge Martin Nolan ordered his motorbike sold, with the proceeds divided among his victims.

He pleaded guilty to the charges. The proceedings were reported on 5 November 2024. The deception involved purported motor insurance policies, and the court heard he was unable to repay victims because he had recently moved home and paid a deposit; his cooperation, guilty pleas and apology letters were accepted in mitigation.
