Huh? Didnt you read the posting?

Tenant is making unsubstantiated claim of fleas. Which if so...even then the tenant likely brought them it. But...making the claim and moving out has nothing to do with anything you just wrote.

We don't know if the tenant claim is unsubstaintiated or not. We don't know if the landlord had allowed or the previous tenant had a pet. Fleas could have existed well before the new tenant moved in. The landlord has not provided any answer if an inspection for fleas were done or not and the results. Just he said she said right now.
If michigan state law restricts how a landlord can keep the security deposit, then it appears the landlord can't keep the security deposit without going to court and making a claim.
