DTLA Management Tenant Security Deposit Settlement Notes
- Dayse Macias and Andrew Macias, et al. v. DTLA Management, LLC, et al.
- Case No. BC 522339
- Pending in the Superior Court for the State of California, County of Los Angeles
In September 2013, plaintiffs Dayse and Andrews Macias filed this class action lawsuit against DTLA Management alleging the company routinely assessed charges against tenants’ security deposits for normal wear and tear upon termination of their tenancy – in violation for California law.
Specifically the complaint says that tenants were not given back their security deposits, and instead were charged for cleaning, painting, and replacement of floors boards upon moving out, even though there was no damage except for normal wear and tear.
DTLA Management denies any wrongdoing and any liability but agreed to settle the case for $700,000 to avoid further litigation. Complete details about the case and settlement are provided on the DTLA Management Tenant Security Deposit Settlement website.
Class members who wish to object to or exclude themselves from the DTLA Management Tenant Security Deposit Settlement must do so by April 16, 2018. Class members who wish to participate in the settlement must submit their claim form on or before April 16, 2018.

Settlement Website
We live 548 s spring 714 from March 2012 to April 2014. We were not given any notice of class action. And we’re told we were even in the list to mail out claim form. We wrerent evicted . And meet all the criteria. I found about the case because a former tenant that now reside in Chicago got a settlement check. She stated that she didn’t know what it was about as she didn’t fill out a claim form. I
