Thus, per my understanding and practice these many years (dating to <i>before </i>1973), the negligent-non-noticing landlord can still sue and recover for damages caused by the tenant; and the negligent-non-replying tenant can still sue and recover for all or part of the security deposit.<o:p></o:p></span></b></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:navy'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:navy'>Thus, if the landlord fails to timely send the notice, followed by a tenant lawsuit for the security deposit (and atty fee), the landlord would be allowed to counterclaim <o:p></o:p></span></b></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:navy'>for tenant-caused damage to the dwelling or monetary loss related to tenant's early departure.
