early temination

[Dawn Samuel]

Renter moved in in February and there was a pipe to burst. Took a week to repair and I rebated the rent. A week later a sewage back up. This also took week to resolve. Renter wants deposit back and to move because house was'nt move in ready. I have a "no early temination" clause. Must give 60 days notice before move. Got an email on 5th requesting refund or court. Deposit was used on multiple repairs. What do I do?

You used their deposit to repair your building? You should not have done that.
