I was previously sued by a landlord after moving out early due to failure for them to repair the heating system. Long story short they received a judgment of $2800 with 3.5% interest per year. The ended up garnishing my wages but then reporting to the court interst of 3.5% daily because they didn't understand what per annum meant. It went unnoticed for a few months but then last month I took them to court and the judge was so angry about their gross miscalculations (they said I owed $20000 due to interest) that he vacated the judgment and ordered them to pay back the funds. My question is, how do I get back the funds, especially those that were overpaid? Do I send them a letter? Do I file a motion or take them to small claims court? any help is appreciated!

Anyone here an expert in this? I could use some professional advice, or even just a sounding board. Pretty sure I know what I have to do. I would love to know if I have any options though.
