    If you are pregnant with his child, you need to see a lawyer;
    Once paternity has been established, he will owe you child
    support.

    Regarding the money he owes; best bet would be to sue him in
    small claims or civil court, depending on the amount. But
    remember, even if you win, it's your responsibility to
    collect.

    Regarding his spreading of "lies" (slander). Send him a
    certified/return receipt letter demanding that he cease and
    desist immediately or that you will persue a legal means to
    get him to do so. You can sue but the burden of proof is on
    you to prove your case. You would need people involved to
    testify and even if you prevail, your legal fees would
    greatly outweight any $$$ that you would possibly get.

    Get to a lawyer regarding your child!
