I was late on a month's payment and included it with the next month's payment. A few days after sending the check, I received a letter from my landlord's lawyer saying that I owed the rent. Since I knew the check was in the mail, I decided to keep checking to see if the check was cashed.
A few days went by and it wasn't cashed, so I mailed a new one in and that check has since been cashed. However I received a petition of Non Payment, claiming that $$$ hasn't been cashed yet.
a) What is my best approach
and
b) If I got the management to withdraw the case, will my name still be blacklisted?
Any help appreciated, thanks.
