Its arguable that this might be a violation of Fla. Stat. 559.72(7). The real issue is if you have the money, witholding payment under a 3 day notice is a bad decision and forcing the issuance of a 3 day notice baits both an eviction and an angry LL to deal with. If you have a 3 day notice served, that typically places you in the role of wrongful party not victim, because it starts with you breaching the rental agreement and being provided a last opportunity to pay the rent before eviction. Trying to pursue or leverage an FCCPA violation of nominal value is not likely a good trade off for an eviction.
