PANAMA CITY, FL — Although the infamous Girls Gone Wild crew loves to travel the country searching for pretty, sassy, exhibitionistic, and often intoxicated young women willing to show their all for the cameras, the company’s corporate officers don’t want to travel to Florida in order to work off their community service.Along with appealing a $1.6 million fine levied against it for shooting explicit footage of 17-year-old girls during Spring Break in 2003, parent company Mantra Films, Inc., has informed a court that traveling from California to Florida every month in order to perform eight hours of federally mandated community service is an unfair personal burden for its corporate officers to bear.

During the December 13th sentencing, Mantra Films had agreed to the fine and its five-year probation agreement levied against it.

Because of the profitability of the Girls Gone Wild series, the judge concluded that a fine was not sufficient punishment the 33-year-old multi-millionaire Joe Francis. Thus he included eight hours of community service to be served over a 30 month span by Francis and three of his top officials, for using under aged girls in the company’s Panama City Beach focused videos. The judge left open the option of waiving the community service for Arthur Greenfield, Jeff Ginsberg, and Scott Barbour if Francis would serve 16 hours per month himself.

Francis must still face state felony charges related to the use of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct, although the majority of those charges have been dropped due to lack of evidence.
