Q: i am in pike county pa the town is sholoa the question what is the time limitation on filing to get seurity depoist back

A:
It is difficult to give you a completely accurate answer without reading the lease, but I think you should send a letter to your old landlord, certified mail, return receipt requested. Most leases will provide that the landlord has to return the security deposit within a certain number of days, or provide written notice regarding why they are not returning it. Again, it is really not possible to provide real legal advice without knowing all the circumstances and actually reading the lease and any correspondence between you and the landlord.
Because I am not aware of all the facts regarding your situation, nothing in this response should be construed as legal advice from me and no attorney-client relationship is formed as a result of my answer.
