Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Iowa

Ok. So I have recently sued a girl for $2,500 and I won. I really plan on never talking to or seeing her again. However, the court is now telling me (after i've spent nearly $200 in court fees) that it is MY responsibility to get her back account number and where she banks. How in the world am I supposed to do this if we absolutely hate eachother? Am I just going to have to live with the fact that she's won? That i'll never get the money I am owed?
