Can borrowing money and refusing to pay it back amount to theft?
Here's the deal:
I lent money to someone and I have a witness and contract.
Now he keeps coming up with a new excuse everyday.
So, today I threaten to take him to the small claims court.
His response: "Because you are being childish you will not see or hear from me and I won't pay you the money untill I hear from the small claims court"
Does this constitute theft?
Can I go to the police?
The reason I ask is because the courts are closed here till after the New Year and I need the money asap.
Thanks for your help
