The comment above me literally cited the relevant piece of the code under which treble damages could be pursued. If leasing an apartment is as reprehensible as so many people here seem to think, then landlords should have no trouble convincing a judge that the person doing so entered into a contract in bad faith.

I see. So you're not a real lawyer, you just pretend to be one on HN.

Not once did I ever claim to be a lawyer.

You could have fooled me with all of your seemingly confident talk about treble damages, which in reality is incredibly ill-informed.

First, I'm not responsible for your assumptions. If you're taking legal advice from strangers on an Internet forum, then as your absolutely-not-a-lawyer I advise you not to do that.

Second, I didn't bring up treble damages, the comment I was replying to did. I was simply drawing a logical conclusion based on the information they provided.
