If a judgment has been awarded by the Court, you can no longer fight it. If your state allows, and you are within the statute of limitations (usually 30 days after the judgment has been awarded) you may be able to appeal.

Can a civil court change the status of plaintiff to be the defendant?

No. Whoever files first is the Plaintiff. If the Defendant then chooses to "cross-sue", the Defendant will still be the defendant on the pleadings even though by virtue thereof, the defendant has launched what is called a counter-claim. In such a scenario, the Defendant will have to defend the Plaintiff's claim, and progress the counter-claim ---- in the same way the plaintiff will need to progress its claim as Plaintiff (and yes, in the same way, the Plaintiff will have to defend the counter-claim launched by the Defendant). By way of additional info, note that the "whoever files first" rule is generally applied to "fix" jurisdiction too. Although the general rule is that the Defendant should be sued in its own jurisdiction, rules modify this basic approach, most often by way of the applicable treaty (e.g. by "special jurisdiction" and "exclusive jurisdiction") and thus by such rules, often the plaintiff is able to sue in its own jurisdiction. Therefore if both potential parties believe they have a claim against the other, where the rules allow for the jurisdiction to be in the plaintiff's own, then it works on a "first come first served basis.


Can an advertiser sue me personally and get a judgment or place a lien against my property for business debts in California if I am the sole proprietor and no collateral for the contract was required.?

If the Plaintiff files suit and names the company and includes "et al", and/or includes the Defendants name specifically, then the suit can be against the company and the individual, in this case, the sole proprietor. When, and if, the case comes before a judge and if the court awards the Plaintiff, the court can ask for an examination of all the defendants assets that are available to pay the debt. If personal property is the only means to which the Plaintiff has any chance of recovering his losses, a lien can be placed against any or all of the Defendants personal property whether it be a car, house, boat, tractor, undeveloped land, etc. The Defendant can file a counter suit within a certain number of days of being served notice that the Plaintiff has filed suit. Perhaps, especially if you listed this homesteaded real property as collateral to get the business going.
