In this small claims action by defendant's former tenant to recover a security deposit in the sum of $2,900, defendant counterclaimed to recover the sum of $3,695 for unpaid rent and damage to the apartment. At a nonjury trial, it was established that plaintiff had paid defendant $2,900 as a security deposit and that defendant had not returned any part thereof to plaintiff. It was undisputed that, in a prior nonpayment summary proceeding, defendant had obtained a final judgment against plaintiff for $1,450, representing one month of unpaid rent. Defendant testified that plaintiff had damaged the wood floors in the apartment, and presented an itemized bill for $1,000 for the repair of the floors, which bill was marked paid in full.
