Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

I was not contacted by a relator for the past 6 years now they claim i owe 2700 dollars which includes interest because they claim they contacted the other party involved do i still owe all the interest even though they never contacted me. yet out of the blue they have my number sounds a little shady to me. if you could find my number six years later why could you not figure out how do find me and contact me six years ago.? so the question is what would i actually owe and if i went to small claims court like they want what kind of case would i have on my side?

You do not say what their claim is about. However, they are probably suing on breach of a written contract, which requires suit must be filed within four years of the breach. Tell them that they are barred by the statute of limitations and what basis do they have to sue. You should be safe from having to pay anything, but silnce you do not give us any facts I can not be 100% sure.
