I wouldn't consider this issue dropped unless they specifically tell you so. It's important to resolve this quickly before they jack up your rent or send additional fines. If they don't comply when you go see them, just go speak with next higher entity until you get this resolved. This fine is absurd...

To Whom it May Concern,

We received a bill from your company today due to 'trash in public areas.' We did not place any trash in a public area, nor did any of our guests. Therefore we are surprised and confused by this bill, as we are not responsible for this problem and it is not covered in our lease. Please rescind this bill immediately and notify us in writing that you have done same.

i'd read through your lease, before you make any complaints. might be something in there about picking up excess trash in your apt area, or keeping it clean.

i had this happen in college, some douchebags were throwing bear bottles on the walkway. since they coudln't figure out who it was, they fined everyone.

then one night i was up late studying, and i could hear the douchebags below us were drinking and throwing bottles on the walkway.

i called the rental agency the next day. they came to their place, and what do you know their apt was filled with the bottles that were thrown all over the walkway.

we all got our fines back, and i assume they had to pay for them all.

What happens if they say I still owe the money and I dont pay it?

Is there really anything they can do?

As many people have already told you, it all depends on what is written on your lease.

If it isn't in your lease there is nothing they can do, legally.

I would be willing to bet there is some provision about this in the lease. The lease is 20 pages.

There was no deposit though.
