On the day of closing, the buyer for our property never showed, nor did we receive any indication that the buyer wanted out of the contract. It's been over a year, and we would not release the earnest money to the buyer. Now the buyer is sueing to try to get the earnest money back. I thought that when a buyer did not complete the contract or ask for a release, they forfiet their earnest money?
