He will have to answer the suit. He can then file a counter suit for malicious prosecution, attempted fraud, attempted extortion, negligence…
Talk to a lawyer…
He should defend against the law suit. The credit card company has no reason to simply take his word for it and is entitled to have the dispute settled by a court.
