What is the time frame under California real estate law for a "roommate" or a landlord to return a security or pet deposit? {e-mail removed-<>} Thank you.

In CA, they must provide a refund or an accounting of how the deposit was used within 21 days of your relinquishing the premises.

P.S. By default you receive an e-mail notification of a response to your questions. We do not respoind directly but to the thread here.
