That was the point of the lawsuit. But also seems like the law, museum, and lots of people here missed the point too.

The guy was paid less than $6K for his work. He was not handed a "giant pile of cash" either, but he will now have to pay back the cash that the museum (for whatever reason) lent him, along with the legal costs amounting to ~$11K.
