Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

How Literal is ''9/10 of the Law?''

My former employer, a TV Prod. Co., went out of

business, owing me nearly $11,000. Since then, I

have borrowed some equipment from them (a

video camera and deck, worth less than the

amount owed) to use for freelance work.

Recently, the owner of the company demanded

the equipment back. At the advice of others,

including a (non-retained) lawyer, I refused to

return the gear until I was paid. There is no

written contract that specifies a date or condition

of return. Will my case stand up if he sues me?
