Appellate Practice Attorney serving New York, NY
Assuming that the text can be authenticated as having come from you, probably. Of course, you can rebut the text, saying that somebody else sent it from your phone or claiming that it didn't represent the actual deal, etc., but the text will probably come in to evidence. BTW, when somebody gives you $, the assumption is that you are required to pay them back; in order to prevail, you would have to convince the court that it had been a gift, not a loan.
