I am a little surprised the court didn't tell him to give back the artist's fee too. 3,600 dollars to do nothing and fuck off without doing the work that he was paid to do.
"Haaning told Danish radio at the time: “The work is that I have taken their money. It’s not theft. It is breach of contract, and breach of contract is part of the work.”"

Oh I never thought of that. I'm super in to sovereign citizens. I joined a bunch of their Facebook groups for fun. They're bonkers like this guy.
