Counterclaim Defendant has alleged items owing for which he was entitled to withhold the Counterclaim Plaintiffs' security deposit, but since those items are essentially for normal wear and tear or the responsibility of the Counterclaim Defendant, the withholding of the Counterclaim Plaintiffs' security deposit is in violation of the Pennsylvania Landlord Tenant Act ofl95L 24.
