What is the name of your state? IL
I HAD a drop box for rent, but when my tenant claimed someone stole his cashiers check from the drop box I tore out the drop box and I am having the tenants drop off or mail there rent directly to me. I did report to the police that he claimed his rent check was stolen from the box.
The tenant “claiming” his February rent check was stolen paid his March rent on time
I believe he is liable for the February rent and late fees and penalties he claims from the banks. He claims the rent was on two separate checks one of them was cashed --- I don’t believe a cashiers check altered and cashed
Is there any way I am liable I never saw the check?
What remedies can I tell the tenant he can make?
Does he go after the bank who cashed the check?
The currency exchange that generated the check?
Or is this just garbage is he trying to play me?
Do I just tell him he has to pay it period?
