Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Georgia
I was taken to magistrate court by a former roomate over money/rent. I won because the statute of limitations (for oral) is past 4 years (02/04 - 02/10). We never had anything in writing. He apparently has a recording of us speaking about it from 03/10. I certainly didn't know of it being recorded. Is this admissible?

Your post doesn't make sense.
If you won the case, as you say, the case is over. So it doesn't matter if he has a recording if you already won.
Your post sounds like you left a great deal out. When you leave out facts, you are going to get incorrect answers.
If you won the case, he most likely can't sue you again for the same claim. He would be barred by the legal doctrine of "res judicata". If he does try to sue you, seek legal counsel.
