“I wonder if they are going to hold out indefinitely and refuse to pay and can they do this?”
sooner or later their appeal options will get used up and if ultimately unsuccessful, they WILL owe the money, and in the unlikely event they refuse to pay, it’s a simple matter to have the local sheriff start attaching properties until the debt is satisfied ... probably start with the building that houses the administration ...
Just wondering if they might try to avoid payment. With the left, it is not about right or wrong or accepting the outcome but about fighting the “righteous cause.” It is a religion to them. No doubt they felt justified, irrationally as it may be. Sort of a variation on statement “the end justifies the means.”
I saw that happen. I was on a jury 30+ years ago and we awarded several million $$$ from UPS to a defendant. After about 2 years of delays and non-payment by UPS, the defendant’s lawyer went to the airport with a local sheriff and the court documents.
This lawyer had the sheriff take ownership of a UPS JET sitting right on the tarmac.
Within a few hours UPS was able to write the defendant a check for the judgement amount, plus interest!
It would just be a matter of a judge ordering an attachment of all bank accounts and the extraction of such funds until the payment was satisfied. The college couldn’t do anything about it.
