When landlords wrongfully withhold security deposits, they can often be sued for three times the amount of the security deposit. Is this reasonable? Should a landlord have to pay $3000 for a $1000 debt? What if you fail to pay a rent on time? Should you have to pay three times the amount of your normal rent? If your answers to these two questions are different, why is that?

    subsection 12 of chapter 4 of the articles of lease-rental agreement states that if a landlord wrongfully withhold security deposits the landlord must pay 3x the amount due to all legal actions and no we don't have to pay 3x rent if we miss a payment we only have to pay the late fee and any other listed fees listed on your lease
