Re: Payment Issue

Not necessarily so. Your paying less than the bill and having your check cashed does not mean the disputed portion has been approved. The creditor may still seek the balance and you would need to counterclaim raising the reason why it should not be paid. This is a response to an Internet question and the reply is not intended to be legal advice or as creating an attorney-client relationship.
