Is OTHER wrong in the post ? POST : In my state the landlord has 90 says to either return the security deposit in full it a partial with an itemized list of deductions. Knowing that I set a Google calendar alert for 90 says after my lease termination. 

After I got my alert, I waited a few more days, then sent an email asking about my deposit. The LL then got back to me with an itemized list of charges. The state statute is very clear, after the 90 days LL forfeits any right to withhold anything from the security deposit. I pointed this out in a reply, and demanded my deposit back. LL is now claiming I'm using a technicality, they're also claiming that they could have charged more but were nice not to. 

Keep in mind also, according to the statute, LL could end up paying treble damages if I have to sue for the deposit.
