    LL has to follow anything and everything in the lease. They can’t just change things at a moment’s notice.

    Keep receipts, document EVERYTHING

    In Tennessee, the five-day grace period for rent payments includes weekends and legal holidays. Do you have proof that you sent it on july 2nd?
