[Note 12] Under G. L. c. 186, § 15B (6) (e), a landlord who fails timely to return the security deposit plus interest forfeits the right to retain the deposit. A landlord's noncompliance with that provision entitles a tenant to "damages in an amount equal to three times the amount of such security deposit or balance thereof to which the tenant is entitled plus interest at the rate of five per cent from the date when such payment became due, together with court costs and reasonable attorney's fees." G. L. c. 186 § 15B (7).
