Shoulda gone to Judge Judy (or the like). A judgment in small claims court is great - but with no debtor's prison in the US there's no way to make anyone pay. In "The People's Court" you would have gotten your money from the producers before you left.

I just use a collection agency. They charge nothing until they get your money. They charge 15% after the fact, but you get 10% interest on the amount due, so it is not so bad.

If this does not work you go back to court with a contempt charge (you have a court order, not a regular bill) and the judge signs for you to garnish the wages and tax returns from the scum bags. In CA you have to give them a freakin' year before you can garish their wages.

Don't worry about knowing where they work. The IRS does, you just need their SSN.

Are you saying that you have won this case and now want tea or a cuppa?

Short of attaching wages to collect the judgment which in some states you can do in others you can't, you won't be able to do anything. You have your judgment, but that doesn't put the money in your pocket and that is where as landlords we get screwed.

I you mean you want to collect the money, the court office will advise you how best to go about it.
