Apartment Cleaning 
  
   When you leave your apartment there is a law that states that you have to make it clean and "move-in condition". This is what came up today. Someone is being fined for not having the apartment clean enough.
She took pictures before and after of the apartment, and thought it was clean enough, there was no damage, but the owner of the apartment thought it wasn't good enough. He fined her $1,500 and she didn't pay it fr 30 days. They went to court for it and payed $400 for the court session.

  I think this was a waste of time. They both had to spend $400 to settle an argument of $1,500. The woman ended up winning the argument, but she still had  to spend $400. I agree that the owner of the apartment should be able to charge people who leave the apartment a mess, I think that the person should fix up any damages, but if you are spending $400 over a $1,500 argument, then it's not worth it. I think that people should just clean up there stuff so this doesn't have to happen.
