Can my landlord still start eviction if I do not pay until the 15th of the month?
Full Question:
I have a residential lease that provides as follows: Rent is payable monthly, in advance, at a rate of $1,000, per month, during the term of this agreement on the first day of each month at a certain location Another part of lease states the following:EVICTION: If the rent called for in paragraph 3 here of has not been paid by the 15th of the month, then management shall automatically and immediately have the right to take out a Dispossessory Warrant and have
resident, his/her family and possessions evicted from premises.
Does this mean you have until the 15th before the landlord can file for eviction for nonpayment?

Answer:
Please note that this clause states: “then management shall automatically
and immediately have the right to take out a Dispossessory Warrant and
have resident, his/her family and possessions evicted from premises. “
Eviction may still be allowed under another provision in the lease for breach
of the terms of the lease. A different procedure may have to be followed as
opposed to the Dispossessory Warrant.
