The court in the Bavarian city of Regensburg sent notice to German lawyer Matthias Lossmann to say it was fining Richard Williamson for incitement over his claim on Swedish television that fewer than 300,000 Jews died in Nazi death camps.
Lossmann said that the court was giving Williamson the option to pay the fine or take the case further, which will mean facing trial.
The exact fine would depend on Williamson’s income. He would need to pay 120 times his daily income, up to €12,000.
Williamson has two weeks to make his appeal.
