Yeah, but he can only do that a few times. It's a much, much better system than what we have today for most things.
Of course, it hinges on being able to tell how much income they have, which is (at least in Germany) the hard part, as the defendant is not required to help.
- tpxl 6y agoThe tax authority generally has that data.
- luckylion 6y agoAnd that generally does not matter, as the DA/judge will estimate the income based on available information. They will usually _not_ involve the tax authority, won't check your bank account etc. If their estimate is too high, you can provide information showing your actual income. If it's too low (which it usually is, because they're conservative in those estimates), you smile and walk out, having saved (a lot of) money.
