security deposit back? do we have a case?
ok here is a long story short lived in an apartment building in palmyra pa and my neighbor got busted for a meth lab got bailed out and now living there again so my husband and i and our son decided to cut our lease due to the situation are landlord is refusing to give us are security deposit back for one cuz we cut the lease 2 months early and 2 cuz we did not give him a 30 days notice that we were moving out idk how i am supposed to give him that notice when the situation did not even happen 30 days ago….heres the deal about the landlord he did not bother to call us about the situation we found out cuz the cops were outside and then later that night we saw it on the news when i called the landlord 2 days later he blew it off as if it was no big deal now there is nothing wrong with our apartment no damages we actually painted the entire thing with a fresh coat the same color the landlord had it….now we are told by several ppl we have a case if we took him to court is that true and do we deserve our deposit back? I did not want my 2 year old to be living in apartment building that has a meth lab cooking in it
i spoke to children and youth and they told me that if someone were to report me that i knew about the situation and choose not to move out they could take my son cuz we lived right next door to the lab like we shared a house it was just diveded and the other fact of the matter is that the guys who were involved got bailed out of jail and are living there again and my landlord does not care that they are back living there the cops are keeping a really close eye on the place but the amount of stuff they found in the house was a severe amount and there is also a chance that the state police could that over the apartments
