I'm located in California.
I have just sent a final demand for payment to a client threatening to sue in small claims court. She owes $1000.00. I gave her until February 28 to pay the balance. Today a check for 300.00 appeared. Should I cash the check, or will that mean I'm accepting this as a final payment. She hasn't entered any info on the check such as "paid in full" and there is no letter explaining the partial payment or promising to pay the balance. Just wondering if I should take the money and then sue for 700.00?? The client is a game player....
Thanks in advance!!!
