Apartment Legal Question

[Gmanc711]

So I'm having an issue with my last apartment which I stayed at, as they are not refunding my security deposit. I was required to let the office know, in writing per the lease agreement, at least 60 days prior to vacating the apartment per my lease agreement (This is a company, not a individual).

I had sent an email to the office, which was received and responded too, indicating that I would be leaving, well over 60 days prior. They had responded to me asking me to fill out an additional form and bring it to the office. I did eventually do that, but it was not within the 60 time window.

According to my lease, all I had to do was supply written documentation (see below).

Do I have a case against them? Seeing as its a company and not an individual, I'm thinking that my odds are not great....but I'm upset enough about it that I want to go as far as I can.



Lease Term Expiration: You must provide us with a written notice of your intent to vacate at least 60 days prior to the Expiration Date
of the Lease Term. If you fail to provide us with the required notice and you move out anyway, then the Lease term will be automatically
extended for an additional month following the Expiration Date, and you will be responsible for paying your current Monthly Apartment
Rent until (i) the end of the one month extension or (ii) the day a new resident moves into the Premises, whichever comes first.
