    Well yes, that is how the law works. It’s not overstepping the boundaries. If you lose a trial, the judge can order you to do it. They cannot enforce it.

    The whole case is idiotic but it doesn’t change the fact that a judge is within their right to order you to do things if you lose the trial. Profit or not also does not matter in this case because the trial was defaulted. They would have had to show up and argue their case, but why would they? It literally does not matter as there is no one to enforce the judgement either way.
