The opportunities for abuses in the determination of the amount
              of sec[]urity deposit to be returned to the tenant highlight the need for
              swift procedural remedies. In many cases the amount in controversy
              will prevent one from going to court. For example, a tenant might feel
              that he was entitled to $20 of the security deposit, but he might feel that
              $20 might be less than what it would cost him in time and trouble to go
              to court. . . . If a simple procedure could be provided to insure swift and
              just results, these petty injustices might be avoided.
