My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Florida
Hello,
I'll appreciate you answer my questions.
To the point: the landlord keeps tenant's money (a deposit less than $2000) after tenant's moving out.
Part of these money was spent for the cleaning; and another part the landlord is still holding back from the repaying.
*Is it possible that:*
1.criminal charges will be imposed against the landlord by accusing him/her of stealing the money?
2. to sue the landlord for the spending tenant's money at his/her disposal ( although, there a clause in the lease about cleaning, but there are obvious signs that tenant's money were overspent)?
Although, I did not state that, but money returning is by implication. All yours professional ideas will be welcomed.
