I have received a cheque from our solicitors, we sent a customer to court for not paying thier account. We received a cheque for the balance also court costs and interest. I have posted the receipt on account however what do i do with the remaining balance? How do I post this??

I would offset it against the legal expenses you have incurred.

The easy way to do that is to raise a dummy sales invoice for "court costs" against the purchase court costs expense account.
