Security deposits and early lease termination

Can a landlord request that the security deposit be forfeited if the renter requests to get out of the lease a month early?  I want to work with them but don't think I have anything in the lease that states that they lose a portion of the security deposit.  Or am I bound to the restrictions of the security deposit as only to be used for repairs over and above normal wear and tear?
