Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

Two years ago, I loaned my brother $12,000 to take his family on a vacation to Spain. He has not attempted to pay it back. How can I recover this money? Can I place a judgement on him? I know small claims in Texas is limited to $5000.

You can sue him, get a judgment against him, and then try to collect it.

Check in the county where you live; some Justice courts have jurisdiction over $5,000.00.
