Well, you can always get charged, but the Q is whether you can be convicted. In this case, you took some money and did some work. I hope the work you did is worth the money you took. That helps. If not, you might return the money you did not earn. It sounds like there was a contract (verbal or written) that said at some point there was additional money due and no work could be done unless that money is paid. If so, I would send a letter CERTIFIED to the person explaining the situation and citing the contract. If verbal, explain the time and date of the verbal contract stating this, and your understanding of both parties agreement. At the end of the letter, indicate that you are happy to complete the work once the money is paid. Also, invite the client to write back if s/he thinks things were different. If the client does not write back, then you can assume they agree. What you are doing is making sure that your understanding of the problem is known to all. And, you have proof of that being delivered to the client. If you have already been charged, get a lawyer prior to doing any of the above. If this project is too old to complete, talk to a lawyer prior to sending any letter.
