    Yeah, he’s never going to willingly pay that bill. A court will have to order the money taken from him.

      I like the idea of him defying the order and the Times getting one of those court orders that let them seize various of his possessions until they reach the amount owed. Could you imagine the fit he would throw if they walked in and had a plumber start removing his gold toilet? I also wonder what things they might find as they seize his stuff - what if there’s another box of national secrets next to the gold toilet?

        At this point, any documents he still has have been sold to the highest bidder or destroyed. They’re far more likely to find a pile of soiled adult diapers next to his gold-plated throne.

        I think it’ll be pretty easy for them, actually. Once the sentence in the civil fraud cause is decided, they should be able to make a claim.
