Security Deposit Timing
I moved out of the prior property I was a tenant at on 6-30-2019. My original tenancy started on 2-1-2016 as part of a 2 year lease. I went month to month after that. Anyways, after moving out I never received any type of notice that my security deposit was being used in full and that additional payment was requested until August 2nd. From my understand since in Kansas a landlord has only 30 days to supply a list of damages or return the deposit, I've been told he can no longer actually withhold my deposit or ask for additional damages payment. Also that I can sue him for 2.5 times my deposit for not holding to the Kansas statute. Does anyone know of any of this is true or how I should proceed?
