Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "eminent" in the document, we analyze the context. The sentence says landlords and tenants often disagree over security deposits, and as a result of this "eminent" disagreement, California law has specific steps. "Eminent" here should relate to the fact that the disagreement is well - known or prominent (since it's common enough that the law has to address it).

• "Specific" doesn't fit as it describes the steps, not the disagreement.
• "Disputed" is about the nature of the disagreement (being argued), not its prominence.
• "Uncommon" is the opposite of what's implied (since the law is addressing it, the disagreement is common).
• "Immediate" doesn't relate to the context of the disagreement's prominence.
• "Well - known" fits as the disagreement is a common (well - known) issue that leads to legal steps.

Answer:

D. well - known
