Small claims court on security deposit

Hai Loc

My partner is summoned to small claims in Erie County NY for a security deposit she didn't return. Now the tenant is asking for 5x the amount from pain and suffering..

#1 my partner is not a US resident

#2 the name on court order is incorrect

Is there still a case here? Can someone bring it to the courts and say nobody by this name lives here?
