A.Yes you can hold the certificate to recover your overdues. Further, when he asks for his certificate, negotiate and tell him the terms (legitimate) on which you would give the certificate.
Not giving him his certificate at all wouldn't be of any help to you as such. So, get your money back and give the certificate, that way both parties purpose will be served.

A.Yes, the employer hold back the experience certificate if the employee has taken outstanding dues that he hasn't paid, if they are into the official records as advance salary paid etc. Any firm has Notice period in resignation of atleast one month. The companies appoint letter will have to be viewed. Your company can send a Legal Notice from a lawyer for clearing off the dues & advance payments received by him/her.
