A D.F. appeals court upheld the conviction of Florence Cassez, 36, a French woman imprisoned in Mexico for three 2005 kidnappings.
The court said her 60-year sentence would stand.
The French government warned the decision will affect relations.
"I am appalled by the court's decision to back the judge's ruling on Florence Cassez," wrote Foreign Minister Michele Alliot-Marie. "It is a denial of justice."
Cassez has always proclaimed her innocence and said her only connection with the case was that she was the girlfriend of the leading kidnapper.
