Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Massachusetts
My landlord sent me my security deposit after inspection of apartment. I received the check and cashed it. 2 days later the landlord put a stop payment in the check and my savings acct was debited the amount. I moved out of the apartment the end of November. Can she legally hold my deposit 30 days after it was already given to me and cashed?

No, you may be entitled to three times your security deposit and attorney's fees. Speak to a lawyer immediately.
