Harry:

Unless the lease has a termination right, it seems that the last month has not occurred and the tenant owes all of the rent to the end of the term. So the LMR can be applied to rent owed.

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Hypo regarding last month's rent


1.     Lease ends December 2017
Landlord is holding $1000 Sec Dep and $1000 LMR
Tenant pays March 2017 rent $1000 and breaks lease March 15, gave notice etc.
Tenant has done $1500 damages
Can landlord make a claim on the sec dep AND LMR


2.     Lease ends December 2017
Landlord is holding $1000 Sec Dep and $1000 LMR
Tenant pays March 2017 rent $1000 and breaks lease March 15, gave notice etc.
Tenant has $1000 damages
April rent becomes due and LL is sending out claim on Sec Dep
Can landlord make a claim on the Sec Dep AND LMR

Bottom line question. Can LMR be used/claimed if it is not the last month of the lease or must it be returned even though tenant may owe rent or have damages that exceed the Sec Dep.?
