Small Claims Court?
Ok my ex boyfriend as of now was driving my car and realized i had a pair of baby blue glasses in my side car pocket. His "girl-friend" whom I use to be cool with had rode in my car like twice but she left absolutely NOTHING in it. Apparently her glasses came up missing and she told my ex that she had been looking for them. My ex ASSUMED the glasses in my car were hers but weren't because her glasses are purple,black,and white. I threw away the glasses in my car because they belonged to me and they were old plus the lense kept popping out. So since he assumed they were hers until he found out they weren't she sent me a threatening text message threatening to take me to a small claims court because her glasses were $290....I broke up with my ex because this issue is his fault for mistakenly telling her my BLUE glasses were hers that I threw away. Anyways he has tried to tell her that they were not hers but she still says she taking me to a smalls claim court.
My thing is 1. She has no proof that they were her glasses
2.This case is just my word against hers
As far as I know all she has is what my ex told her but he tried to correct himself once he found out that they were not hers.
Long story short, does she even have a real case? Do I need a lawyer? What do I do?
PS: I refuse to pay her $290 for a pair of glasses she misplaced
PSS: SHE is trying to sue me! Not my ex! My ex has already told her he made a mistake but SHE still wants to take me to court because he originally said I had them before knowing for sure if they were hers.

First you can not use a lawyer in small claims court except in a few states and you didn't mention yours, but I am betting use of a lawyer is not allowed in court, you can of course talk to one to get yourself prepared, he/she just can't go to court with you
He can't sue anybody
And your question makes no sense the further down I read, who is suing who? You never mentioned that she was going to sue you, you said that after he realized they were not hers, he stopped sending you threats
You never mentioned that she wants to sue you
Very confusing, but she has no case even if she did try to sue

The case wouldn't just be your word against his if you still had your ex around to testify in court that the glasses he found were actually your blue ones, and not her purple, black, and white ones.
She probably has enough to file a case, and to perhaps see what your ex says in court, since he originally said they were her glasses.
