Damages are the amount of money awarded to the plaintiff in a lawsuit. Damages are generally determined by the judge using established guidelines based on type of offense and severity. In civil cases damages are based on the actual loss incurred because of the tort and may include penalties.
If the plaintiff (that is the person who filed the law suit) wins (i.e. is awarded a judgment), then they can attempt to collect the money that they were awarded by the Court. There is no guarantee that they will be able to collect any money, as the Court is not involved in this process and it is up to each individual plaintiff to collect on their judgment.
It means that even though a court may rule in favor of the plaintiff, they may not be able to actually collect the money awarded to them because the defendant lacks the funds or assets to pay it. This can result in a situation where the plaintiff is unable to receive the compensation they are entitled to despite winning the lawsuit.
