Bangkok, Thailand (CNN) A former Thai monk, known as the "jet set monk" for his lavish lifestyle, has been convicted of crimes carrying a total prison sentence of 114 years, his lawyer told CNN.

Wiraphon Sukphon was found guilty of fraud, money laundering and computer crime, and sentenced to two to three years in prison for more than 40 complaints, lawyer Phanu Sookwanli said.

However, under Thai law the maximum prison sentence for a combined set of charges against property is 20 years, so Wiraphon, who's in his late thirties, is likely to be released before he's 60.

His lawyers have 30 days to submit an appeal, or ask for an extension to appeal.

"He will remain in jail, but we are for sure going to appeal to the next court," Phanu said.
