You can sue in either place but, unless you know that he banks with a National Bank, ie. Bank of America or Wells Fargo, you will have to file the Nevada judgment in California to garnish or execute. I do know that Wells Fargo will take money out of a California account holder if you serve the writ of execution on a Nevada Wells Fargo branch.
