My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: minnesota
Pretty sure this is in the right place, but here it goes.
So I'm a college student, and I found a house with one of my roommates and some people I know early last summer. I put down a deposit of 600 dollars. I never ended up signing the lease, as I was back home and the landlord never sent it to me. One day I get a text from one of the guys saying that he moved someone else in and either me or my previous roommate couldn't stay there anymore, claiming he tried to call us and discuss it.
So heres my question: Can the landlord withhold the 600 from me for any amount of time? I know he has to get it back to me eventually but can I just tell him to send me a check now or I'll take him to court?
Sorry about any typos, on my phone. Thanks for any help, appreciate
any help.
