Present your evidence and trust that the judge will see the truth. Get details of where the money was paid to.

If you didn't sign it, you don't need to repay a penny.

i am not sure where money was paid into, prob the company he was running at the time(5 years ago). I was a guarantor on the loan that he forged the sig too.

Do you have the time and date of when you allegedly signed the document? If so, get a bank statment from the bank for the time and see if you bought anything which would contradict the time of the signature. Were there any witnesses on the agreement. Just a suggestion.
