Subject: RE: TAN #51: TAN and DeliverSpokes - 2008-10-08 6:38 PM Oh, and I'm taking my old landlord to Small Claims Court for not returning my damage deposit within the time specified by California law. He's been trying to weasel out of returning most of it as agreed, so the papers are going to be filed. It should have been back to me - $150 worth - by August 21st, and its, um, October 8th? He's self-employed and pleading poverty, bad economy, but the deposit should have been put in a bank acct. and not TOUCHED.
as an fyi.. you can request damages in most states if the landlord illegally keeps the deposit.. most states its up to x3 the amount |
