I just moved out of a 4-unit building (24 units total) in Buffalo, NY. My lease shows signatures lines for the LL, Witness and Tenant, and clearly states, "This lease is effective when the LL delivers to the Tenant a copy signed by all parties." However, my LL never signed the lease, nor gave me a copy with his signature or a witness' signature.

I just got my security deposit back, with a $50 deduction for window washing. This is clearly a lie, since none of the windows were ever washed for new tenants or myself. Do I have a case against my LL? Since the lease wasn't signed and delivered to all parties, am I still responsible for meeting the conditions of the lease?
