Hiring people to do a service for you and then not paying them is basically a bait and switch.
Trump is infamous for this.
Initially I wasn't going to honor this statement with a response because it is unworthy of response.
I'm not piling on, I will use this as a teaching opportunity.
In business relations there are legal instruments, one is called a contract.
There are remedies for breach of contract. Both parties make agreements on what will be provided, that will be called the duties of the parties.
When one or both parties think the agreement has been broached they can act in a way that would compel, upon filing suit, a Court to order compliance to the terms or if the offending party refuses to comply dissolution of the agreement with damages.
Trump chose not to pay, causing the other party to file seeking performance. Trump let the Court hear the grievances and rule.
It's quite common in business.
Work your way through it, I'll help you if you need it and request it.
You're welcome.
