You have two different issues going on here. First, you should figure out whether or not you are liable for the balance due. Each state has their own landlord-tenant laws. You may want to talk to an attorney.
Per the CA, DV them first. If you indeed owe, and they validate to your liking, then offer a PFD. But again, see an attorney first. You are within SOL, likely, but if served, be sure to answer any summons and go to court to fight it.
