Late Charge

Posted by Eric on August 10, 1999 at 16:07:43:

My lease calls for a 5% late charge if the rent is not paid by the 5th of the month
I. paid half of my rent before the 5th and my roomate (who's also on the lease) still hasn't paid as of today the 10th.
The Landord is charging us the 5% penalty for the entire month's rent. We've been late for the past few months and he always waived the late charges but now he says we have to pay. Can he charge us the penalty based on the the entire month's rent or only the portion remaining?

Thanks
