    I was sued in JP Court by a Debt Collector
    I went to trial and the Judge said he found in favor of the defendant and the Plaintiff shall take nothing. Three days later I received the Judgment in the mail. The last sentence of the judgment read "It is the opinion of the court that the Plaintiff is justly entitled to a judgment against the defendant as hereinafter; therefore it is accordingly ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED by the court that:
    The plaintiff shall take nothing from this suit.

    I don't understand the part about "Plaintiff is justly entitled to a judgment against the defendant". What does that mean? What are the legal ramifications? Did I win or lose?

    I would go back to the JP Court that issued the letter and ask for clarification of the order.
