It does not to be sent to a court registry, it just needs to be set aside in some other account.

Go ahead try it. Our lawyers tell us this just ends in non payment evictions every time.

In particular this is what happens with slumlords like Pioneer Investments LLC who disregard the laws.

Also this is why lawmakers are discussing raising deductions from $125 to $500 or even the full rent.

I’ve heard it from the best lawyers in the state who handle evictions cases every day, every week and they have told me if you haven’t given proper notice (20 days) and / or deduct more that the legal $125 then you are likely seeing an eviction filed against you for non-payment of rent. It doesn’t matter that it’s probably an illegal retaliatory eviction they still happen and sometimes judges grant them if tenants don’t have enough documentation etc
