The Business owner will probably have to go to a small-claims court and legally dispute who gets what and he will have to pay back that ammount or more. Not to mentionm, he will be charged with "Unlawful Money Handling", which can lead up to 2 years in jail, or he can be charged with something more unusual, such as false business claims, suggesting as if he had claimed something, you bought into it, and he stole money from you in that manner.
Another View: While the above may be true if you wish to proceed against him in civil court - if you can prove that he stole the money in a criminal scheme (i.e.: Fraud or False Pretenses), you can lodge a criminal complaint against the business owner with the police - and if your information is sustained by an investigation, he can be arrested and charged criminally with the offense.
