Dissatisfied with the timing and the amount of the deposit return, the tenant filed a complaint on October 16, 2007 (see note 3, infra), claiming that the landlord had not returned the deposit within thirty days after the tenancy’s end as required by G. L. c. 186, § 15B(6)(e), and that, having failed to follow the procedures set out in c. 186, § 15B(4)(iii), the landlord was not entitled to make any deductions from the deposit.2 See G. L. c. 186, § 15B(6)(¿>). Accordingly, the tenant sought a judgment for three times the total amount of the deposit, plus interest, costs, and reasonable attorney’s fees, pursuant to c. 186, § 15B(7).
