At a hearing, the judge denied the discovery motion and then heard argument on the tenants' motion for summary judgment. She later issued a written decision concluding that, on the undisputed facts, the landlord had violated the security deposit law by failing to return the deposit within thirty days after termination of the tenancy. See G. L. c. 186, § 15B (4), (6) (e). She ruled that the landlord was liable for three times the amount of the deposit plus interest, along with costs and attorney's fees. [Note 8] See G. L. c. 186, § 15B (7).
