The company will pay it, then it will sue the father for the non-work related charges. Maybe Google will cave and dismiss most or all of the charges. But if they do not, the company most certainly will not eat it and be satisfied. Losing his job would be the least of his worries. They will eventually petition to have the court collect the money via force (garnishment). Trust me, either way, you’d end up paying at least some amount.
I don't know if it's for sure thing that the company would pay, honestly, either.
It could possibly just get stuck in accounts payable.
LOL
What does "get stuck in accounts payable" mean?
If you have a debt of $100k, and you don't pay, eventually the court takes all your money and all your stuff.
A lot of companies just end up not paying. See Trump's companies for an example.
Do you know how credit cards work by chance
