What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut
My landlord has lost my rent checks twice in a row for May and June and wants me to pay the late fees. He admitted in an email that he lost the May rent check and now he is accusing my of not sending it again. He wants me to send him a copy of the canceled check from my bank that he will reimburse me for. What if he never cashed them though?
(My roommate and I have always submitted our rent checks in the same envelope to the drop off box. She has literally seen my checks as we seal them in there together. They are getting hers but not mine somehow.)
I am willing to rewrite the checks but I am not willing to pay the expensive late fees.
How do I resolve this with him?
If I have to get tough on this what rights do I have concerning this issue and how do I protect myself?
