    Landlord Keep Deposit For Past Late Payments?
    Hi,

    Is it legal in Florida for a landlord to arbitrarily keep my $500 security deposit after I moved out and over a month after my last late payment? Should they not charge the late payment when it occured - not after all is said and done because they are greedy and mad I moved out?

    Thank you,
    Bob

    Did you make the late payment or did they take it from deposit? I read this as you made it but they took deposit anyways?

    Thank you for reply.

    The landlord never asked for a late payment - ever. Only after I moved out they said they were keeping the $500 because I was late several times LAST YEAR.

    Thank you,
