On the day of their court appearance, the Messis were greeted by a human chain of supporters in front of the Gava court.

The case revolves around allegations that Messi and his father hid around 4 million euros from the tax authorities. Although Jorge Messi paid over 5 million euros to rectify the situation, the legal proceedings continue.
