§ 38-12-802 — Tenant payment - receipts

Upon receiving any payment made in
person by a tenant with cash or a money order, a landlord shall contemporaneously
provide the tenant with a receipt indicating the amount the tenant paid and the date
of payment. If the landlord receives a payment that is not delivered in person by the
tenant with cash or a money order, if requested by the tenant, the landlord shall,
within seven days after the request, provide the tenant with a receipt indicating the
amount the tenant paid, the recipient, and the date of payment, unless there is
already an existing procedure that provides a tenant with a record of the payment
received that indicates the amount the tenant paid, the recipient, and the date of
payment. A landlord may provide the tenant with an electronic receipt, unless the
tenant requests a paper receipt, in which case the landlord shall provide the tenant
with a paper receipt. For purposes of this section, a receipt may be included as part
of a billing statement.
