424 A.2d 135, 137 (Me.1980). The requirement that double damages together with reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs be awarded to a plaintiff prosecuting a security deposit suit once the defendant/landlord has failed to carry his burden of showing that his retention was not wrongful, is clearly and unambiguously stated in section 6034(2). Accordingly, we vacate the amended judgment of the Superior Court filed February 28, 1983, insofar as it denies plaintiffs reasonable attorney’s fees for prosecution of their security deposit claim. We remand the case to the justice of the Superior Court who presided at the trial of this case for a determination of a reasonable fee based on the evidence of record. 3
