My company was awarded compensation in an small claims case in Colorado. The defendant has filed the interrogs with the court, but we have not received them. Is the defendant legally required to provide us with a copy?

Also, the court will not provide us with a copy unless I go down to the courthouse - which is kind of far away. Should I just go down there, or wait for our copies that are hopefully in the mail?

Also, what is the next step after so recieve the interogs to collect?

Thanks!

Hello again, admin:

You were awarded a judgment. It the defendant wanted to STOP you from collecting your judgment, he would have filed for a "stay". He didn't. Therefore, in my view, your judgment is valid and just waiting to be collected upon. Go get the WRIT of execution, and take it to the sheriff, or the court bailiff or the constable. There IS someone who is available to serve writs and collect judgments. You just need to find out who it is.

The fact that the judge ADDED a defendant makes your case stronger. Now you can collect against either one.

OK, So initially you dealt with the person directly. But were partially paid by one LLC. Then the judge added a different LLC to the suit. Sounds to me like you can collect from either,

But what about the screen print judgement reading:
individual's name $0 individuals name company name $$$ and company name $$$.

then, when i call the court for clarification they tell me the judgement reads 2 defendants and the financials read:
individual $0 company $$$

Have they changed something from what I received in court?

I am concerned that I will not be able to collect from either party as I know he will hide money in the LLC in order not to pay us and I am not sure we will be able to collect directly from the individual.

If the guy wants to commit business suicide by closing his bank accounts, then he will. IF he does, then his business isn't worth any money in the first place, so you wouldn't have collected a dime anyway.

Look, if you sued an individual, the judge can't exchange HIM for a CORPORATION. He can ADD a corporation, but he can't remove your defendant.

Stop asking questions and go down the courthouse and get yourself paid.
