hello, dated this guy for about 3 months, he wanted to put me into the stock market with him, he did this and set up mt account for me,he said he would give me 500 to put in and i had to come up with the rest 500 so now we have broken up and he is demanding his 500 back, he has threatend me a few times and now he said he will sue me and put lean on house, i never signed anything as to say this was a loan, this was something he insisted on doing i never asked him to do anything like that, so question is can he sue me and can he put a lien on my house?

anyone can sue anyone else for any reason in any amount at any time. that doesn't mean that there is any proof of a debt owed, nor does it mean that a court would grant a favorable decision.
in this case, i think you have little to worry about. the idea of a lien on your home is a threat, and that threat is intended to persuade you to simply pay up. inasmuch as you've characterized this transaction the way you did, if it ever did become a lawsuit, all you've got to do is tell your story to the judge. be sure to do that, though, because if he sues and you don't defend yourself, you could lose. of course, it's only $500, so losing wouldn't be that big a deal, but why lose if you don't have to.
as for proof...if he files suit and does it right, he will say that it was a verbal agreement. your defense would obviously be that there was no agreement for you to repay it, i presume.
i hope this helps.
