If you need any FH/ADA experts, I keep a running list of people I trust who
I send people to all the time as we don't deal with that.

Forgive me, I meant FHA, not ADA.  To answer, your question, yes, they
appear to be alleging that the disability prevented a timely rental payment.

I'm confused - Are they claiming the inability to timely pay rent is tied to
a disability under the ADA?

and Failure to Deposit Money in Court Registry

I represent a landlord in an eviction, and received a letter today from
legal aid, on behalf of a tenant, which requested a reasonable accommodation
under the ADA and a local ordinance.  The accommodation is the "acceptance
of rental payments upon certain conditions and stipulations."  We already
filed the eviction long ago and would have gotten a default, had the courts
not suspended them due to the coronavirus.  Does anyone think there is any
merit to this being a reasonable accommodation, or have any insight based
upon receiving something similar before?

Thanks,

Jordan
