If I sue a friend in small claims court for money they owe me, and say I win. If this person works part time, and gets paid every week, and their spouse works full time and gets paid every other week, but aren't well, how would I collect what is owed? They claim to be financially stressed. But can go.out to dinner regularly can get her hair done, buy gifts for people, etc. They do have a home and a car. What options do I have?
