Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New Jersey
Two names were on the lease for an apartment unit. Lease terminated and check for the security deposit was made payable to, and mailed to, only one of the co-tenants.
If the other co-tenant is unable to secure her half of the security deposit from the co-tenant who received the check for all of it, is there any recourse against the landlord for not making the check payable to BOTH co-tenants?
[I assume there IS a recourse in small claims court against the co-tenant who won't agree to split the refund with the other?]
