During the tenancy, appellants repeatedly failed to pay their rent on time, as required by the lease; consequently, Ms. Newsome filed suit in September 1998 for possession of the property. Later, however, she agreed to dismiss her complaint in return for Mr. Grimes’ promise to make immediate payment on the back rent that was due and owing.
