My roommates are surprise moving out and they said the landlord told them that they have to get their part of the deposit from me, ie "no fuck you if you want your part of the deposit you paid me, get it from ShimmeringKoi." When asked, he just said "California law" and also said we have 24 hours to decide if we're still on the lease or not.

I can see the 24 hour thing maybe being official, but the deposit thing immediately scans as bullshit, what can I do about it?

I will text my friend that deals with this stuff in California or I'll call him tomorrow. Do you have a copy of your lease agreement?

tell them you have to replace the carpet and do some paint and they actually owe you $800 on top of their deposit
