Collecting Earnest Money Deposit

Hello Everyone,

Hopefully someone here can help answer a question.

My husband and I live in California, we had put our home for sale and escrow started. Two days before closing the buyer backed out and will not sign a earnest money deposit release.

What are the options here?

Note: She has agreed to release it if we “split” it, but we want the entire deposit.
