As an umpire assignor/coordinator, I would refuse to send that TD any further umpires, and counsel my umpire staff to avoid any other effort. If part of a major sanction, I would also pursue through that State Commissioner/Director and State UIC; if they support the nonpayment, then I would no longer support that sanction.

Who would pay for that?
