Legal Question in Consumer Law in Connecticut
banquet hall deposit
My fiance and I put down a $1000 deposit to a restaurant/banquet facility. At the time of reservation and giving the deposit the companies event coordinator/manager told us that if for any reason the reservation needed to be cancelled, then the deposit would be refunded to us if they were able to re-book the hall for the same date. The has since been re-booked and they refuse to honor the verbal agreement. To make matters more complicated, the event manager no longer works there and never notated our file of this agreement. My question is 1)Do we have any recourse? and 2) The hall cashed the check several months before the event date...are they allowed to do that?

Re: banquet hall deposit
Sounds like you may need to sue, but first have an attorney do a demand letter, setting your agreement out and the applicable law.
You may get your $ without court.
