Turning to the issue of willfulness, the small claims court found that there was no impediment to
Landlord returning the deposit, and Tenant had reminded Landlord on September 9, 2024 of its obligation
to return deposit. The small claims court found that these facts, along with the implication from
Landlord’s agent that Tenant should not expect the deposit on the 14th day but would look to the later
deadlines in the lease constituted a willful withholding.
