Contractor stole from us

Contractor was payed 106 thousand and didnt pay the Lumber supplier. He ows them 31 thousand and still has 20 thousand of our money. Now we have a Lien put on propperty and house is still not done. He never finished any work. We fired him after almost 1 year of this and we found out he didnt pay. He charged other peoples procheckts on our acccount with lumber supplier. They want to charge us for it. What can we do other then bond. We want him to pay and maybe do some jail time. He took our money and he didnt pay bills.How can we get rid of the lien?

Based on what you say here, you could file suit against him (or at least threaten to do so) in small claims court or in regular court; filing in small claims court is easier and requires no attorney...you could try to collect all of the costs and damages that you suffered due to his behavior... You may also report him to your state attorney general's office.
