Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Security deposits<br>
<br>
Has anyone dealt with a garnishment served on the landlord? The creditor is trying to grab the security deposit. I’m not able to find anything saying it cannot be grabbed by the creditor, so I assume it’s free game.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any conflicting insight?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
