This is nice
In December, a judge ordered the bank to pay the couple $2,500 in attorney fees. But months went by and the bank never cut a check. So, the Naples Daily News reports, Nyerges hired a lawyer, who pursued a levy, and this past Friday the showdown was on: The Nyergeses showed up to a local branch of Bank of America with the sheriff, the media and some movers with a truck:
...
Allen told local station WFMY that he had ordered the deputies to take photocopiers, desks, computers and even whatever cash was in the drawer to settle the debt. Allen said the bank manager on duty was "visibly shaken."
Story finish: Bank cut a check for $5,772.88. The start of a trend? One can only hope.
We don't see enough of this.....

Years ago, I did this to Bank of America, too. We started unloading the ATM machine, and the bank rapidly cut us a check . . .
