A new landlord has to have received the security deposit from the old landlord during the process of the closure of the sale of the property. The new landlord is responsible for that security deposit.
Your rental had a flood due to a faulty plumbing fixture The landlord and you agreed your family will move out as soon as possible What are your rights concerning your security deposit?
your security deposit is for DAMAGES caused by the tenant. Note this is major damages (broken windows, holes in the walls), not normal wear and tear. This flood was caused by faulty plumbing, not the tenant, so the tenant's security deposit should not be effected by this. Therefore the tenant should get his security deposit back, unless there were damages caused by the tenant themselves (not by the flood).
What can you do if your landlord refuses to give you back your security deposit because you lost your receipt?
If your landlord accepted the security deposit from you he must return to you unless he have legal grounds to keep all or part of the security deposit. I don't think that the loss of your receipt for the security deposit is enough to allow your landlord to keep it. Thus you can sue him.

Can a landlord keep a security deposit for damages rent and water even if the tenant files for bankruptcy?
Most likely. A security depsit is something that every state allows landlords to collect. The purpose of security deposits is to assure that a tenant pays rent on time and keeps the property in good condition. Half of the states place limitations on how much a security deposit can be. In addition, there are usually limitations on how a security deposit can be used by a landlord. Rent and water damages are the type fo thing that a security deposit is supposed to cover. You should look into how much damage there was as you may still be owed some money back. But the fact that you filed bankruptcy does not necessarily entitle you to your security deposit. It may be better to think of it as money already spent than a refund you are supposed to get back.
