Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

eviction on tuesday 5/26

the sheriff came by on tuesday and gave us until the 26th to get out. we had a processor serve us last month and no one responded to the notice. we instead paid the rent to the rental company for the amount due. the rental company cashed the check. the court went ahead with the eviction process and we cant afford a lawyer. any suggestions? can the rental company cash the check and go ahead with the eviction?
