Enough already! Stop trying to communicate with the LL or anyone else about this. Simply bring to court your USPS receipts showing the dates you mailed the rent payments to the LL. When he cashes the payments has no bearing on whether your payments are tendered timely. If you have, in fact, been mailing your payments in with any type of receipt returned to you, either certified or registered mail, then you will be able to estabish the date tendered and that will end the discussion for the judge. Decision in favor of tenant, case closed. If you have maintenance issues with the rental which affect the habitability of the rental, such as roof leaks, then make a written for the repair, sent certified mail, and wait the statutory amount of time for repair. If no repair ensues, the you may take the statutory relief (repair and deduct or terminate the lease, whatever is allowed by your state). If you are a LL too, then you should be familiar with the LL/T laws and you should read them to inform yourself of your position as a tenant.
