So once in court,I plan to pay ONLY my rent and late fee, the other fees I dont agree with. What's the likelyness of that happening?

What does your lease say in regards to when rent is due and when it is late...and what are the late fees?
Show up in court with your rent for September and the late fees plus documentation that you paid the two previous months in advance of the deadline.
The rest of what you post...that you wanted to buy the place and it fell through for whatever reasons, that his WIFE was the realtor (?so? the current house I've lived in for the past 30 years was built by a husband contractor and shown to me by his realtor wife) and the fact that you have a duplicate copy of some lease has no bearing on any of this.
Of course if your security deposit is used for Octobers rent, you won't get this back. It's being used for rent.

I stated that his wife was the Realtor to show he blatantly lied on the court papers, he obviously knew(one of the questions was if he gave opportunity to purchase to tenant). My lease states rent is due on 1st,after the 10th a 10% of rent fee. Also that rent is to be due on business days. I never received a notice or chance before he filed.
The only issue that the court has to decide on is what you owe in terms of rent/late fees for September and whether you've been late on previous months. That's what you need to focus on.
I realize there's a tendency to want to toss a whole load of stuff at a judge to prove why the landlord/management has been unfair to you but it's important to remain focused on the real issue. Judges are busy people and it irritates them greatly when a kitchen drawer full of issues is tossed at them.
When is the hearing set for?
