If you divest the landlord of that security deposit and make him pay interest, how do you suppose that's going to make the landlord feel toward you? Is that important to you?
It might be. It always goes to show that laws like this can be used as a shield; but use them as a sword (or a club to beat someone over the head) at your own peril.

- I am an elder law attorney with my own solo practice. I'm located in central New Jersey but I make house calls. I am in the business of setting the elderly and their caregivers at ease, by making sure they have high-quality health care they can afford, and governmental benefits they're entitled to.
