Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California
We are currently in a lease at our apartment complex and a larger apartment became available. We were given a price of $1859 a month as the price so we put down a deposit. Now we are being told the price is $2345. The deposit check states what the deposit is for exactly. What is law say?

It depends on whether or not the deposit was a holding deposit. The holding deposit is not the same as the monthly rental. An attorney would have to review any other paperwork.
