26 UCLA L.Rev. at p. 401, fn. 32 [“The main problem in declaring [a landlord’s holding of a tenant’s security deposit to be] a trust relationship is that the landlord with a fiduciary duty to his tenant also has an interest in the security deposit himself; though the deposit remains the tenant’s property during tenancy, it becomes the landlord’s property should the tenant default.”]; cf. Rest.2d Trusts, § 12, p. 35 [“A debt is not a trust.”] & com. i, pp. 39-41 [“A common situation involving this question arises where a tenant makes a deposit of money with his landlord as security . . . .”].)
