Re: [RPPTL LandTen] [RPPTL LandTenCL] Timing for Notice of Intention to Impose Claim
Unfortunately, you often cannot reason with an unreasonable person. I've been in that position many times, I just tell them "if you are so sure, then file a lawsuit and let's see how it turns out." But that's just me, I have little patience for foolishness.

Confidentiality and Relationship Disclosure. If you are reading this, congratulations, you are probably the first. For years law firms have included lengthy disclosures at the bottom of their emails which in our view are of, at best, marginal legal value. We have decided not to do that. Instead, we will ask that if you got this email and shouldn't have, let us know and please don't read it (though if you've read this, chances are that ship has sailed). Also, just because we exchange emails doesn't make us your lawyer(s). If you would like to create an attorney/client relationship, we're glad to hear it and would be happy to provide you with an engagement letter. As soon as you have received written confirmation from us, you can consider our relationship formed.

I don’t really practice in the residential realm, so I don’t have similar war stories, but I disagree that it is an unreasonable position to interpret give as “deliver” instead of “send”. If they didn’t receive it, how did you “give” it to them?
That said, refusal to claim the certified letter should not count as failure to “give” in any instance, but have fun wording that.
Bottom line is that “give” is a horribly ambiguous word to use in this instance and it should be fixed to be clear one way or the other.

He is hanging in the word “GIVE”. The statute does not say “send”
(a) Upon the vacating of the premises for termination of the lease, if the landlord does not intend to impose a claim on the security deposit, the landlord shall have 15 days to return the security deposit together with interest if otherwise required, or the landlord shall have 30 days to give the tenant written notice by certified mail to the tenant's last known mailing address of his or her intention to impose a claim on the deposit and the reason for imposing the claim.

I am dealing with a non landlord/tenant law attorney who is hell bent on saying that the tenant must RECEIVE the Notice of Intention to Impose Claim on Security Deposit within 30 days.
Our position is that it must be MAILED by certified mail within the 30 days.
Anyone have any cases on this? It is something so obvious but I don’t know of any cases.
He is being relentless on this. This is the first time in 30 years I have an attorney taking this position and he is not backing down.
Thanks!

So if they sent it out and it took 5 days to receive, they did not “get” the notice within 30 days? Suppose the tenant had the mail forwarded and it took 10 days to “get”?
The attorney’s position seems absurd but the law does say “give” not “send”.
I can’t find one case probably because it seems so obvious.

I don’t really practice in the residential realm, so I don’t have similar war stories, but I disagree that it is an unreasonable position to interpret give as “deliver” instead of “send”. If they didn’t receive it, how did you “give” it to them?
That said, refusal to claim the certified letter should not count as failure to “give” in any instance, but have fun wording that.
Bottom line is that “give” is a horribly ambiguous word to use in this instance and it should be fixed to be clear one way or the other.

Seems to me that the essence of provisions like this is that someone be made aware of the other party’s position, so I would lean toward an interpretation that effects that intent. But, again, I think it’s clear as mud, and far from obvious. I have no dog in this fight since I don’t deal with this. Just giving a neutral perspective.
By the way, great to see the LandTen listserv rocking today! This is the most activity I’ve seen in a long while.

I am dealing with a non landlord/tenant law attorney who is hell bent on saying that the tenant must RECEIVE the Notice of Intention to Impose Claim on Security Deposit within 30 days.
Our position is that it must be MAILED by certified mail within the 30 days.
Anyone have any cases on this? It is something so obvious but I don’t know of any cases.
He is being relentless on this. This is the first time in 30 years I have an attorney taking this position and he is not backing down.
Thanks!

These types of argument involving delivery/receipt/sent etc. are often raised in association foreclosures based on the poor wording of those statutes. Poor wording leads to the ability to interpret by judge or jury. Need to decide whether you want to allow interpretation or settle. Maybe don’t settle and create law so we can have some certainty!

So if they sent it out and it took 5 days to receive, they did not “get” the notice within 30 days? Suppose the tenant had the mail forwarded and it took 10 days to “get”?
The attorney’s position seems absurd but the law does say “give” not “send”.
I can’t find one case probably because it seems so obvious.

Subject: Re: [RPPTL LandTen] [RPPTL LandTenCL] Timing for Notice of Intention to Impose Claim
I don’t really practice in the residential realm, so I don’t have similar war stories, but I disagree that it is an unreasonable position to interpret give as “deliver” instead of “send”. If they didn’t receive it, how did you “give” it to them?
That said, refusal to claim the certified letter should not count as failure to “give” in any instance, but have fun wording that.
Bottom line is that “give” is a horribly ambiguous word to use in this instance and it should be fixed to be clear one way or the other.

Perhaps analogize it to the notice requirement of a Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Mortgage (see paragraph 15 of the attached) which states that notices are “given” when sent by first class mail. I acknowledge that this is somewhat different, since it states “given” means sent, whereas the LL/T statute does not contain such language.

I don’t really practice in the residential realm, so I don’t have similar war stories, but I disagree that it is an unreasonable position to interpret give as “deliver” instead of “send”. If they didn’t receive it, how did you “give” it to them?
That said, refusal to claim the certified letter should not count as failure to “give” in any instance, but have fun wording that.
Bottom line is that “give” is a horribly ambiguous word to use in this instance and it should be fixed to be clear one way or the other.

I am dealing with a non landlord/tenant law attorney who is hell bent on saying that the tenant must RECEIVE the Notice of Intention to Impose Claim on Security Deposit within 30 days.
Our position is that it must be MAILED by certified mail within the 30 days.
Anyone have any cases on this? It is something so obvious but I don’t know of any cases.
He is being relentless on this. This is the first time in 30 years I have an attorney taking this position and he is not backing down.
Thanks!

I believe the tenant has 15 days after “receipt” of the landlord’s claim to object.

Perhaps analogize it to the notice requirement of a Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac Mortgage (see paragraph 15 of the attached) which states that notices are “given” when sent by first class mail. I acknowledge that this is somewhat different, since it states “given” means sent, whereas the LL/T statute does not contain such language.

These types of argument involving delivery/receipt/sent etc. are often raised in association foreclosures based on the poor wording of those statutes. Poor wording leads to the ability to interpret by judge or jury. Need to decide whether you want to allow interpretation or settle. Maybe don’t settle and create law so we can have some certainty!

So if they sent it out and it took 5 days to receive, they did not “get” the notice within 30 days? Suppose the tenant had the mail forwarded and it took 10 days to “get”?
The attorney’s position seems absurd but the law does say “give” not “send”.
I can’t find one case probably because it seems so obvious.

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Timing for Notice of Intention to Impose Claim

I am dealing with a non landlord/tenant law attorney who is hell bent on saying that the tenant must RECEIVE the Notice of Intention to Impose Claim on Security Deposit within 30 days.
Our position is that it must be MAILED by certified mail within the 30 days.
Anyone have any cases on this? It is something so obvious but I don’t know of any cases.
He is being relentless on this. This is the first time in 30 years I have an attorney taking this position and he is not backing down.
Thanks!
Harry
