Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Indiana

real estate contract
I sold a house on a 2 year year contract in 06'. The buyer was informed that the septic worked good but was only a temperary fix and would have to be replaced. The buyer had no problem with it,and wanted to buy the house. Buyer chose not to get an inspection and also signed the contract to buy house ''as is'' and with the understanding that the seller makes no representations as to the condition of the property. Then in 07 the county came through and seen the septic wasnt ran right and said it had to be replaced. Buyer agreed to pay to have the septic replaced. Then in Aug 08, the balloon payment became due and buyer breached contract. Due to the breaching the contract the seller sent an eviction notice and the buyer retalliated by filing a false lawsuit for fraud against the seller. Because the buyer sued seller, the buyer has now lived in the house for free for 9 months. Buyer wont pay anthing and won't leave the house. The entire lawsuit against the seller was ALL lies, we think in order to basicly get something for nothing. In the mean time waiting on the court date, the buyer has bought several luxury items...New truck, new speed boat...ect. But not paid seller a dime! What are the seller's rights?
