Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed Badie and 13 other senior members of the group have been sentenced to death for inciting violence and unrest in Egypt.
The court in Cairo also sentenced US-Egyptian citizen Mohamed Soltan to life in jail for supporting the Brotherhood and spreading false news.
Soltan, who is on hunger strike, is the son of Brotherhood preacher Salah Soltan, who was among those sentenced to death on Saturday.
Judge Mohamed Nagy Shehata also handed life terms to 23 other Brotherhood members.
The defendants were among thousands of Brotherhood supporters arrested after the ousting of President Mohamed Morsi in July 2013.
They were accused of plotting unrest from their headquarters in a sprawling Cairo protest camp after the Islamist leader was toppled.
The Rabaa al Adawiya camp was dispersed by police in August 2013 after a 12-hour operation that left hundreds of protesters and 10 policemen dead.
It came after weeks of failed European and US-brokered negotiations with the Brotherhood, who insisted on Mr Morsi's return to power.
Mr Morsi was the country's first freely-elected president and ruled for a year before he was ousted.
President Abdel Fattah al Sisi, the former army chief who toppled him, then won an election and has vowed to eradicate the Brotherhood, which he calls a terrorist organisation.
The group is blamed for a string of militant attacks that have killed dozens of policemen and soldiers.
The deadliest attacks took place in the Sinai Peninsula and Cairo.
The Muslim Brotherhood claims it is committed to peaceful activism and had nothing to do with the bloodshed.
The men's sentences can be appealed before Egypt's highest civilian court, the Court of Cassation, in a process that could take years to reach a final verdict.
The mass trials have drawn international criticism of Egypt's judicial system.
