Additionally, it's important to highlight that he refused to properly comply with the legal process - so it was a default judgement. This is essentially unheard of due to how unwise it is.

We can consider his non-compliance an investment in his audience. By refusing to comply, he signals his supporters that the lawsuit is unfair persecution. And they believe him.

His lawyer already stated “Finally, a judge followed the law.”.
