Thanks - I do want the additional expenses paid. I went to the small claims office today and filed a "memorandum of costs after judgment, acknowledgment of credit and declaration of accrued interest" - with the help of the small claims advisor.
The loan of $2K now has a balance due of $2642.47 - he's gonna love that. I don't want him to try to pass off a fake money order to me so I'm going to ask him to pay me thru the court. It will cost him $20 processing fee - and then it takes them about a month to pay me back... but better than dealing with a dead beat in person.... not that I'm holding my breath.
