Even though I was awarded judgement, I never got any money and never got my part back. Nothing happened to him at all.
I had the same problem in Ohio. Guy didn't show, I won. I had to take him back 3 more times for the money. I won every time, but he never paid.

I used the Better Business Bureau also. Another waste of time.

The only thing you can hope for is posting on sites like this and embarrass him into giving you your money back.
