A rich man orders a replica ‘66 Batmobile from the only man licensed by DC to build them. He’s at the top of the list. Rich man misses a payment and ghosts the builder for nine months, so the builder moves him to the bottom of the list and works on other customer’s cars. Rich man finally gets in contact, throws tantrum, tries to sue him, has his case thrown out. So he calls a buddy of his, a sheriff in California. Sheriff sends four deputies to Indiana, raids the builder’s office, has his bank account frozen and seizes documents. The Sheriff has no jurisdiction in Indiana, should not be bothering with a simple civil dispute in Indiana, but a rich man wanted his ****ing Batmobile, and by God he was going to get his Batmobile.
 
Stunning corruption.
It continues. Not only has the San Mateo DA called off the arraignment, but he’s now investigating why the sheriff got involved in the first place. Meanwhile the bank account of the builder is still frozen while the rich ******* claims he’s the real victim here.
 
Wow. This is so far beyond what I'd call childish, it's actually kind of impressive.

Throw both of them in jail. Don't sell the batmobile for pennies on the dollar, or even give it to someone else. Instead, crumple it. Live. In front of him.

Destroy his ego. However paper thin it may be.
