b. If payment is made after the writ of possession has been posted, the landlord may request the court delay any action under paragraph (b) (5) of this section until any checks used for payment have fully cleared any involved banks.
(4) An electronic or written check made by a charitable organization or government entity has the same legal effect as a payment made by the tenant under this subsection.
(5) Once the court is provided with the notification of redemption by the landlord or adequate evidence is submitted to the court of the redemption, the court shall vacate any judgment of possession entered relating to failure to pay rent and terminate any such writs issued.
(6) This subsection does not apply to any tenant against whom 2 judgments of possession have been entered for failure to pay rent in the 18 months before the initiation of the action to which this subsection would otherwise apply. A judgment vacated under paragraph (b)(5) of this section is still considered a judgment for purposes of calculating the number of judgments in the previous 18 months to determine a tenant’s eligibility under this paragraph.
(7) The landlord may restrict the method of payment under this section, unless payment is made by a charitable organization or government entity, as follows:
a. Prior to a judgment being entered against the tenant, the landlord may restrict the method of any payments to those accepted under the terms of the lease.
b. Once a judgment has been entered against the tenant, the landlord may require payment be made by either certified check or money order.85 Del. Laws, c. 436,
