I have a good case against someone who owes me a few hundred thousand dollars. I was under the impression that he was well off, and I know he owns a few hundred thousand dollars of stock in a RE corp. However, a credit check reveals that he has numerous judgements, including default bank mortgages and deficiency judgements, as well as unpaid legal fees, hundreds of thousands in credit card debts, etc. going back several years. If I win the suit, will his other creditors have to be paid first before I get to collect any of my awarded money? It seems as if his previous debts are much more than what I may be awarded. Case is in NY state.
