If the things he kept are your things, and you can prove it in court, then, yes, I would say that you can sue him to recover your belongings or to get compensated for the things he kept.
However, a lawsuit can cost you up to $20K, or more if he fights, in legal fees.
I would ask yourself what it is that he has that you want back - and if it is something sentimental that you want back or if you have loss of property of more that $20K, then, I would advise you to hire a qualified lawyer and file suit.
You can also try to sue him yourself in a small claims court - if the damages are under the statutory amount allowed.
