So like a lot of people says depends on if your time is worth it. And yes also depends on what your rental contract says. If you don’t have A contract. Then it is a he says he says. If you have a rental contract it will depend on what your contract says. And if you do go to court and you do win, yes you still have to collect but you automatically know where they bank so that should be easy if they still have a bank account there with money in it. As far as people on disability not paying rent that is bull**** just because they are on disability they still have to pay rent and you can still sue them. But you cannot garnish a disability or any federal check.
And unfortunately I learned a long time ago fighting the good fight is expensive. And so is winning at all cost. Some things are a lot better off, to walk away from and some are worth fighting for. Choose your battles wisely. Your money comes and goes, time does not it only goes.
Either way, you should at least let the new landlord know what they did to you so if they can be prepared. Unless they quit renting about a house. Then you can put a lien on their house. Lol
