BERLIN (Reuters) - A German man, angered by a court decision, was left even more out of pocket when a judge gave him an extra fine for storming out of the court and slamming the door hard, authorities say.
"Apparently the panes shook, he slammed it so hard. That displeased the judge," said Wolfgang Ohler, spokesman for the court of appeal in the southwestern town of Zweibruecken.
The man, who had been involved in a property usage dispute with neighbours, had appealed the fine on the grounds the door had slipped out of his hand as he left the courtroom.
But the appeal court rejected the appeal and upheld the judge's view and fine of 200 euros (140 pounds).
