[RPPTL LandTen] "Allocation of Security Deposit" as a cause of action/remedy in claim for security deposit

[George Pincus]

One of my colleagues asked me if I had ever heard of "Allocation of Security Deposit" as a cause of action in a claim for security deposit in a residential case (we represent the Tenant who is trying to get back a sizable security deposit).

I was not familiar with "allocation" as a remedy in a claim for a security deposit.  Can anyone shed any light on this one for me?

Thanks.
