Can LL take me to court for living out security deposit for last month rent?
On 6/1 my LL insisted that I moveout or get rid ofmy little dog (this has been going on 6 months and I told him I could not get rid of my dog). I originally had lease that converted to a month-to-month. On 6/1 he pointed his finger at me and told me to do somthing with the dog or he may have a "surpise for me". I took that as a threat to evict me and I found an apartment a few days later and told him I was moving last day in June, but I need to live out my security. He said 'no way' and that I can't leave until Aug 1st. Now is oK with my leaving end of June but wants me to pay him $600. Basically he want me to give him $ to fix the apartment. I'm willing to give him $200, but that's it considering all the things he did not fix here I think I'm beingmore than fair. this will be my final offer to him.....However, Ijust want to make sure he can not take me to court.
Thnaks,
