"Judge's Scathing Critique: Company's Bold Gesture with 3 Tons of Coins"
A Colorado welding company, JMF Enterprises, was ordered by a judge to pay a subcontractor, Fired Up Fabrication, the $23,500 it owed after attempting to pay the settlement in coins weighing over 3 tons. The coins were delivered in loose form, causing logistical issues for the recipient and banks. The judge deemed the company's actions as "in bad faith" and gave them 14 days to pay the subcontractor using a more conventional method.
