COMPLAINT DETAILS (from renter)

My former landlord, Dan Rubin, has knowingly neglected to return my security deposit, nor did he send me an explanation itemizing any deductions he was making from the security deposit (which legally must be supplied to me within 30 days of vacating the unit. I moved out of the unit on August 4th, 2010. The first few months after that, I had initiated several phone conversations with Dan Rubin. He explained to me that the reason he hadn't refunded my security deposit was because he was unable to locate a copy of my lease from the previous owner stating the total deposit amount. In fact, the property had changed hands 3 times during the time i lived there, so this seem very believable. In February of this year, while unpacking boxes, I found a copy of the last lease I signed. I mailed it to Dan but he has not made any attempt to pay me or even contact me. I left the unit clean and in good shape for having lived there for 7 years.
