Someone Canceled a check for a car I sold.?
My mom sold someone a car for $3,800.
I wrote a receipt and a contract for everything.
In the receipt I release us from all liability.
Long story short, my mom is out of my country for the next few months, And they canceled the check saying that we sold the car under false pretenses, saying the car had problems, when we didnt know about.
Its taken me a week just to get a hold of the bastard.
He wrote me two checks
One that can be cashed immediately and one that was to be cashed in a few weeks.
He gave me a deposit of $500
Now on my receipt I said he gave me a $500 deposit,
Now after speaking to him he says $500 was all it was and that he doesn't owe me anything.
Which is false,
Well anyways I threatened to sue him, he is saying he will counter sue with car problems.
I dont know what to do..
Any help.
Thanks
P.S im in Southern California if that helps interms of laws.
If there were any problems with the vehicle you didn't tell him about, there's a law where he could come back to you and say he wants a refund of the money and legally you have to give it back.

Uh, nope. Car sales are AS IS. Then the buyer has to prove the seller is knowledgeable of cars (aka ASE certified auto tech) and also must prove fraud.
I doubt this poster has anything to worry about here.
I see a check that is getting sent to the Justice of the Peace/Hot Check division for prosecution.
Used car sales = AS IS. That's going to save you here.
