So, I moved out of my old place and into my new place this past July. They are both in Indy; I just wanted to move closer to school. Anyway, a couple of days ago, I got a letter from my old place stating that they replaced the carpet and I need to send them a check for $403. Now, I didn't think the carpet was any worse than when we moved in, but I'm sure I can't prove that. Anyway, I guess my question is aren't they legally obligated to inform me earlier of the charges? I mean I haven't lived there for almost 3 months. Is there a time limit on this stuff or am I just making up stuff in my head? I've been diggin a little, and found something about a 45 day limit when they are taking from a deposit, but there was no deposit on this place so I didn't know if a different law applied.
Any advice would be appreciated. I'm not very up on my landlord/tenant law.
