NOTICE OF INTENTION TO IMPOSE CLAIM ON SECURITY DEPOSIT
Upon the vacating of the premises for termination of the lease, if the landlord does not intend to
impose a claim on the security deposit, the landlord shall have 15 days to return the security
deposit together with interest if otherwise required, or the landlord shall have 30 days to give the
tenant written notice by certified mail to the tenant’s last known mailing address of his or her
intention to impose a claim on the deposit and the reason for imposing the claim.
If the landlord fails to give the required notice within the 30-day period, he or she forfeits the
right to impose a claim upon the security deposit.
Unless the tenant objects to the imposition of the landlord’s claim or the amount thereof within
15 days after receipt of the landlord’s notice of intention to impose a claim, the landlord may
then deduct the amount of his or her claim and shall remit the balance of the deposit to the tenant
within 30 days after the date of the notice of intention to impose a claim for damages.
