My buddy moved out of a brand new apartment and they kept his deposit because they said the carpet was damaged and needed to be replaced. The carpet in fact looked basically new, and Georgia won’t allow LLs to keep deposits even for normal wear and tear anyway. So I sued for him, and did it for free because he was just going to let it go, which I assume they count on everyone doing when they pull this scam. Georgia gives treble damages.

Then these fuckers don’t answer the lawsuit at all. Then months later my buddy gets a check for the remainder of the deposit not taken for carpet, which is supposed to be returned within like 30 days. So they wrongfully withheld again after being sued for wrongful withholding just to be cute. And then I get to looking at the itemized fees and stuff and found out they were just charging a made up monthly fee too.

So I look up reviews online seeing if there’s a pattern of all this shit and I find all kinds of reviews saying the same shit from tenants all over the place in different apartments owned by the same company. So I amended the complaint they never answered and added punitives and now I’m going to make this the trial of the century hopefully because fuck these scheming landlords. Gonna get justice for the other tenants who couldn’t afford to sue.

And they’re like “oh we’ll just ignore the occasional lawsuit because a default judgment of treble damages is a drop in the bucket compared to what we’re making keeping all these deposits.” I’m going to ask for millions in punitives

you gotta get a low paid property manager to be your witness and reveal the manual or emails where his higher ups tell him to keep security deposits for everyone.

You can’t get millions in punitives from a few thousand dollar deposit controversy.

Amend to make it a class action with your buddy as the class rep.

You’d want to allege the security deposit withholdings were a practice or policy by the defendant that can be shown through common evidence. They withheld a security deposit for X reason every time someone left, and X reason violates statute Y. Or maybe Defbro had a policy of not adhereing to a statutory requirement every single time they withheld security deposits for whatever reason they withheld it (so the reason they withheld it wasn’t important)

It can be done but you need to frame it carefully.

Can’t allege that plaintiff had his security deposit withheld for carpet cleaning and that therefore all security deposit withholdings for all the renters are therefore illegal because it requires determinations of why the security deposit was withheld for each class member which is an individualized issue.

In discovery see if you can get any policies they have wrt security deposits. If on its face it contains any violation of a statute in your jdx then that would be grroubds to amend for a class. Doubt you’d have grounds to get a list of all tenants in an individual suit though.

Class action would be hard because individualized issues would predominate. Have to determine the reason that the LL kept X portion of the security deposit for each class member, and the amount kept would likely also vary.

Now if that other fee/ charge that was mentioned upthread applied to all tenants and was illegal that could be a class

1. Because that would’ve ended it and that’s what they wanted me to do, to take the measly treble damages on the original withholding. And then they continue their little scam having only lost a tiny fraction of what they’re making

2. Because they added another count of wrongful withholding by sending the remainder months after the lawsuit

3. Because I discovered there’s a fraudulent fee

There are punitives on willful misconduct, malice, fraud, etc.

I have never gotten punitives on default for a (statutory) fraud case. I’ve only defaulted 2-3 in that situation but judges here never give me the multiplier. Which really doesn’t matter because if I am defaulting it’s usually not a good sign for collectibility.

actually did get them once in federal court. Judges much smarter there.

I got 8 figure punitives on one default case a few years ago. Haven’t had this situation come up again until now. That other case was way worse though. Ended up taking his house and salary for a year and he was uncollectible after that

i've always dreamed of doing this.

it seems like such a slam dunk. most states have treble damages and landlords withholding security deposits unlawfully is common practice.
