I am getting out of a lease with a wacko landlord and she's trying to convince me that they have the right to deduct the cost of repainting (even though there is no damage done to the walls) from my security deposit. She says they repaint every time a tenant moves out regardless of the condition of the walls. There is nothing in my lease about their doing this once I move out. Is this legal?
