In Reply to: Failure to Return Security Deposit posted by Cynthia on May 31, 2000 at 14:27:27:

I used to work for the New York State Attorney General in the consumer fraud division, more specifically, the landlord/tenant department. The only reason a landlord can keep a security deposit is for damages to the apartment or unpaid rent. That is it. There is no other legal reason. I hope this helps.
