Judgment for creditor

What is the name of your state? CA

I was a plaintiff of a small claims suit. The court favored in my judgment and I was awarded the monetary loss, which I was seeking, from the defendant. Soon after, the defendant filed for bankruptcy, chapter 7, and I was given notice. Are there any options or remedies in order for me to claim my judgment from the defendant or is it loss of monies?

I would appreciate any feedback and/or advice. Thank you.

If the defendant names you as a creditor and their discharge goes thru, than you are at a complete loss...

You cannot even mention to them ni passing that they owe you money, as you will have violated the BK laws, and can be subject to monetary penalties...

This is also assuming that there BK will be discharged... You have a right to attend the 341 meeting of creditors, and can state your case there. Chances are though that you will have to wash your hands free of this and move on...
