Note: The Courts have ruled that habitual late payments means more than one (1) late payment
following the Notice to Cease. Also the N.J. Supreme Court ruled that a landlord after giving a
tenant a notice to cease late payments, must continue to give the tenant reasonable and sufficient
notice when accepting further late payments, that continued late payments from the tenant would
result in an eviction action. If the landlord does not give this continued notice, the original
Notice to Cease given to the tenant may be considered waived by the Court.
