Long story short. I sued a small battery company for selling me a battery that was inaccurate and defective for $70. Now, after I won, how do I collect from the owner. I talked to him and he refuses to give the $$$, or refund, or exchange. He says he wants to stay friends, and he likes me? Not interested in his charm or output.
What are the ways in Los Angeles California that I could go about getting this money? Lien on his property? Or what?

The court ordered payment -- if the owner refuses to abide by the court order, you need to go back to the court and ask the court to order assets be seized to satisfy the judgment.
You don't need a lien -- I'm sure there are enough cash assets available to satisfy a judgment that small.

I am a lawyer from different Jurisdiction and different legal system, so I would not know that exact law. Where I come from (indonesia) lien on his property would be inefficient, not worth it. What we do is publish our victory in the newspaper and priorly warn him about our intention.
