Prior to me moving into the house that I was going to be renting the owner was talking about all of the improvements and repairs he was in the process of making on the house. Needless to say once I moved in, things changed. I gave him a $700 security deposit the day I moved in which was in the middle of Aug. The central air unit wasn't cooling the house off and the temp. was in the upper 90's to 100's. I was constantly calling him and asking him to please come fix the air, and he would ignore my calls, and the only time he came over was when it was time to pay rent. He came and placed a small air conditioner in the den which didn't do squat for the house. So i called him and left several voicemails about it still being hot. He never did return my calls so I did a stop payment on the check and moved out. He called me and told me he needed that $700 plus $50 in NSF fees on his account. He said if I didn't settle the check he was gonna press charges. Is that possible?
