I'm the OP of this thread...
The mom decided to forfeit her spot prior to their start date after I held the spot for 3 months. They put down an 8 week deposit which they asked for a refund, I, of course, refused. DCM threatened legal action over a month ago. I know she was going to consult with a lawyer before taking it to small claims...I can only assume that the lawyer looked at everything and told her my contract, stating that deposits are nonrefundable, would hold up in court.
My question is, how long after a threat of small claims court would it be safe to assume there will be no legal action taken? It's been 1 month since she withdrew and threatened me.
