You might be out of luck in this case. as there are still people in that apartment.

you could see if your now ex-roomie would give you the security deposit out of his money since he will be getting it back when he moves out.

how much was it? was it enough to fight over?

To whom did you pay the deposit? The roommate or the Landlord? If you paid it to the roommate then that person is responsible to pay it back to you if your living space in good condition and gave adequate notice to vacate. If you paid it to the Landlord and they checked your living space and found it to be clean, then they should reimburse you. You may have to wait though if everyone was on the lease until they vacate said premises....Good luck
