What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
Hi. I loaned my ex-boyfriend $2,000 when we were together. After we broke up in December, he only returned me $380 (in January). I didn't bother him for the past 5-6 months about the money. When he asked me for his laptop back, I returned it, but there was something wrong with it - it crashed. (I don't know if that was really my fault...)
I recently asked him for the rest of my money I loaned him ($1,620), and he said he won't give it to me because I have to pay for a new laptop.
Is that legal to hold money as collateral? I really need my money back...I loaned that to him before his laptop broke.
