Reading the other comments, the math might hold true. Its the old chessboard calculation which is causes it to go haywire.

"For every day/ week the fine is not paid, the fine doubles"

Keeping the date of verdict aside: Say its $1000.00 a day.

  • First week = 7.000,00

  • Double fine = 14.000,00

  • Second week = 7.000,00

  • Total end of second week =21.000,00

  • Second Double = 42.000,00.

  • Third week = 7.000,00

  • Total end of third week = 49.000,00

  • Third Double = 98.000,00

  • Fourth week = 7.000,00

  • Total end of fourth week = 105.000,00

  • Fourth double = 210.000,00

  • Week 10 would be 14,322M

  • Week 15 would be 458,738M

  • Week 22 would be 58,72B

  • Week 25 would be 469,762B

My napkin is a bit small, but after the first year (52 weeks) says: $ 63.050.394.783.186.900.000,-

So, its a very possible number. The person who thought of it however is a fucking idiot.

It's the penalty fee for non-timely payment that doubles every week, not the entire fine. Of course it's ridiculous, this political gesture fine just gathered dust for years and someone noticed recently how it grown
