Thank you for the website. I plan to do further research at the law library tomorrow. The statute dates back to 1951. I am sure that the law has changed somewhat since then. Side note: I am sure that T did receive my letter but is claiming she did not in order not to pay for the damages.

Going forward, always pay for proof of mailing. doesn't cost much and you've got your proof that you sent it.

in this case, I'd say if tenant actually files, the magistrate will side with you ... date keys were returned as the official move out date. It will cost the tenant in the $150 range to file.

next, did the tenant give you, IN WRITING, a forwarding address? If they didn't, you don't owe anything. That said, even when they don't, you should always send to the last known address (your property) with the above mentioned proof of mailing.
