In Small Claims Court in state of California, County of Solano?

What recourse is there for a a debtor in small claims court when he loses in small claims court. A "request to pay in installments" was filed for approval because of the financial condition of the debtor. A decision was reached and mailed to the debtor stating that he must "pay in full immediately". How was this decision reached to "pay in full" when all necessary documentation was filed stating willingness of debtor to make payments, pay stubs, other obligations, etc. And more importantly, what recourse does the debtor now have since he now has a court order to "pay in full immediately?

Update:

There was no reason for the deciding factor to be based on the thinking that the debtor was placing his comfort above the obligations. The debtor is barely making ends meet and is attempting to resolve with all possible means. Again what alternative is there for the "debtor". We know the alternatives for the plaintiff already.

    i think of you could pass to the state the place the party is residing. i might inquire with Small Claims and notice in case you could sue someplace it rather is nearer to you whether you could commute. i'm no longer knowledgeable in this.
