I won an eviction and money judgement against a tenant, then ended up paying her since the penalty for not doing it (I was one day late) was double the deposit amount (state of WI).

You cannot say the higher amount is a penalty for not paying by the 1st, BUT YOU CAN say the $995/mo is an discount.

Notice, the only way to see this sheetrock was to (1) remove the shelves, (2) step inside and look at these narrow strips.To his credit he looked at her and said, this falls into the "if you don't like it you can end your lease at the end of the month, no penalty.

Or they will cash out your 401k to pay the note off then you get the rest minus penalty.

We also need to increase the penalties for those that are actually guilty of sex crimes and keep them away from the public.
