Small Claims Success - we came to a compromise

Well I got back a total of $1400 of my $1600 deposit. My ex-landlord was trying to keep $400 towards charges that I disputed.Through mediation, I agreed to taking $200 in payments of $50 per month. Apparantly he has lost his job and that is all he can afford. I think it's fair. I was mostly annoyed at his unprofessionalism and thinking he could just outright charge me for 100% of replacing things that were not new when I moved in or that were his responsibility (e.g. garbage disposal, electrical outlet that didn't work).
