I agree with Cary, Judges in Miami-Dade will also dismiss, but not always
award attorneys' fees as fees are not mandatory

My opinion is that your 3 day notice becomes defective once any payment is
accepted. Our Judges in PBC will not hesitate to dismiss an eviction on
those grounds and award atty fees to the tenant. I would suggest you
voluntarily dismiss the case before the tenant incurs legal fees and
re-serve a new 3 day and start the process over again.

Folks - quick residential question (from this commercial attorney) on the
need for a new 3-day notice to quit where there is a partial rent payment
accepted between the date of the original notice and the date the complaint
is filed.
Specifically - Tenant withheld part of July rent due to repairs and a demand
from the association (LL had been previously notified of need for repairs,
and tenant did in fact send invoices and itemization of deductions).
Landlord then sent a 3-day notice. Then in August, tenant again withheld
part of rent and made a partial payment. Next correspondence from the
landlord was the Complaint - no new 3-day notice.
So again the question is whether the lack of the new 3-day notice after
acceptance of partial rent precludes the eviction?
Any and all thoughts, ideas, etc. are most welcome.
Thanks.
