They have to be comfortable that if you sue them they can prove they are right. Truth is a defense and all that. With defamation on things like this, there can be a business practice qualified immunity as well; depending on the facts. That can be overcome by proof of malice. If the debt is some specific contracted amount you didn't pay, you would probably not be able to prove malice. If the debt is based on the opinion of a person about smell or what the legal issues are, malice would be far more reasonable.What do you they need to produce to make this an actual debt?
What stops them from replacing the refirgerator just because they feel like it and then claiming that the old one smelled like death?
How do I defend myself against subjective "damage" claims that can't be documented by photographs? Moreoever, how do I do it after the fact?
