Re: security deposits
The Court will probably hold that you are required to give back part of the security deposit. The landlord needs to show the damages he sustained as a result of the tenant leaving such as ads to rerent the place and cleaning expenses. Further, one must look to the specific lease. When does it expire or is it month to month.
Good Luck!!!!!
