I do not want to fly back to california to sue someone for $400 So could I take this someone from california to small claim court here in denver.
Or is there any other better option to solve this issue?

Denver has no jurisdiction over the matter so the answer is no.

You can try, but most likely the person you are suing would petition the court for a "change of venue", which would likely be granted, as the "issue" happened in California.
Now you are going to California, or will be found in "contempt of court" in which you trade your measly $400 for jail time.
Kiss the $400 off.

they are broke no probability for any money... do you already know what occurred this week lower back in 1850, in California? California became a state. The State had no electrical energy. The State had no money. only approximately all human beings spoke Spanish. there have been gunfights interior the streets. rather, it replaced into only like California on the instant, different than the ladies had actual **** and the adult men did not carry palms.

You will need to bring suit in the state of domicile of the defendant. Colorado courts have no jurisdiction in California.
Frankly, for $400, I'd let it go. It's going to cost you far more to pursue this than you stand to gain in the end.
