In Colorado, the landlord must account for the security deposit in the time stated in the lease or no later than 60 days from termination of the lease or possession. They can be liable for treble damages and attorney fees depending on the facts.
Contact an attorney as soon as possible. I hope the information was useful and I wish you the best.
