What does judgment for defendant mean?
"Judgment for Defendant" means that the defendant wins the case. In a criminal case, a judgment for defendant would be a "not guilty" verdict (usually). In a civil case, it would usually mean that the defendant does not have to pay money to the person who sued him or her (known as the "plaintiff").

If personal property is not asked for but money is in a small claims action can that property be repossessed?

Is there jail time for non payment of alimony?
No. Not exactly. If alimony is owed, it is a matter of court order. That is a judge ordered the defendant to pay alimony for a specific amount of time to the plaintiff. If the defendant fails to pay the alimony, he is in contempt of court. The plaintiff would need to file a notice of noncompliance with the court (as simple as a letter to the ordering judge) and a bench warrant would likely be issued. If the defendant is not subsequently apprehended by law enforcement, the plaintiff may motion the court to enforce the bench warrant, and which time the judge would issue an order for arrest for the defendant. The defendant would then be actively sought by law enforcement, arrested, and would appear before the ordering judge to explain why he had not complied with the court order to pay alimony.

What does compromise settlement in an injury or wrongful death mean?
It is like Let's Make a Deal. Do you go for the million dollar briefcase or take the money already won. A compromise settlement is agreement between the parties to a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit to accept some amount of money other than what the plaintiff wanted and that the defendant was willing to pay in order to avoid the uncertainty of results if the matter goes to trial. For example, in an auto accident case, the plaintiff is certain that the jury will find defendant responsible for the accident and award a million dollars. The defendant is certain that the jury will find that the plaintiff is the one responsible. The reality is that at a trial anything may happen. Total win or total loss. All or nothing. Maybe somewhere in the middle. In order to ensure plaintiff will get something, he settles for less than he thinks he is entitled to. In order to ensure defendant will not have to pay some exhorbitant amount he settles for a bit more than he thinks he is responsible for. Each side compromises his/her claim and settles the case.
Should you pay restraining order to a plaintiff instead of your landlord?
The question makes no sense. There is no payment of a restraining order. To obtain a restraining order, you either contact your local law enforcement agency and have a temporary order filed, or you motion the courts for an order, in which case you pay a motion fee to the court. Nothing is paid to the plaintiff, and the only reason your landlord would be involved is if he is the plaintiff or the defendant.
