As of now, your case is considered over and done with, unless you choose to appeal the current decision. I assume you have the apartment re-rented again. My suggestion is for you to just "let it go" You were awarded $50 on paper, which you will probably never see. Any money you lost is tax deductible, so you won't be out quite as much in the end. I never chase tenants in court. I just get them out, change locks, repair the damages, and get it re-rented again. For me, it's simply too hard and too time consuming to find the former Ts, and then find out they have no money, no assets, or no job. Some LLs make it their life's work to hunt the former Ts down and make them pay for the LLs pain and suffering. Not me. I just accept the loss as a cost of doing business, and move on to new tenants. It's up to you what you decide to do next.The past is past. It's time now to look to the future.

Yea G your right, but the part of feeling cheated is what gets me! I guess my property taxes which are in the eccess of 20,000.00 (total)per year is not enough to pay for a fair and knowledgeable Judge. Thanks for the ear!
