From November 2014 to May 2015, I was living in a non-rent stabilized building in Brooklyn that had a court appointed receiver and was being managed by a professional management company. In early April 2015, it was sold to a new owner, and the management company provided notification that all leases were transferred to new owner. I vacated the unit under agreement with the new building owner in May 2015 and have since been trying to recover my security deposit. However, the receiver has not yet filed accounting with the court to release security deposits. I've contacted the court, the receiver, and the lawyer of the receiver to no avail. I'm considering suing the receiver in small claims court but am confused about legality, given that there is court appointment middle-man in the scene.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
