Glad you have such a high opinion of yourself. Unfortunately, that is NOT the basis to addess security deposit litgation. Absent a forfiture issue - security deposit litigaton is NOT productive for a tenant unless they are willing to spend legal fees fighting over the amount to make a point. Fla. Stat. 83.49(3) sets out the process.
