Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Tennessee

collection

we moved out of a apart. complex & we had our final walk through with the assist manager. Signed papers & said everything was fine. They said the would mail us the papers. 2 weeks later we get a letter stating that the carpet had to be replaced and wanted us to pay half. I have a returned checked stating paid in full and a letter states that it was all good when we moved out. They now have turned it over to collection and they are trying to force us to pay. I don't feel that we owe this. Should we pursue this in court or do we even have a case? How do I get this solved?
