Plaintiff Peeved After Penalty Paid in Pennies

It took a diesel truck with a lift gate to deliver a 210-pound crate to George Whitman’s Fresno home. When he opened it, he found out why....more than 23,000 pennies. It was the price of a judgment Mega Prints and its owner Chris Pacheco were ordered to pay in small claims court to Whitman for printing services Whitman says were repeatedly not done right, and along with the pennies, there was also a letter.

“It’s truly shameful we did not expose the court to the real you,” read Whitman. “It’s all there Mr. Whitman, down to the very last penny.”
