Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida
I broke my lease on the apartment i was renting. The lease says you must pay 1 and 1/2 months rent to break the lease. When I went to pay the amount the girl in the rental office told me I only owed the prorated amount for the first 10 days of June. Now I received a letter after they deposited the original check for $452 and are stating I owe them the amount of the whole month and the half on July as stated in the lease. I thought that once they deposited the check for $452 this means they except that as final payment.
Can this be paid in installments or does it have to be paid all at once?

Not exactly. There was no meeting of the minds, an accord and acceptance.
