Collecting Double rents and late fees

I evicted tenants because the did not pay Jan or Feb rent. In my lease agreement it states that on the 11th a $25 fee is applied plus $10 a day that it is late until it is repaid. My question is, Is it allowable to charge 2 late fees of $25 and to charge 2 different sets of day charges? I am trying to say that late payment fees of $10 are still incurring for January and then late fees for Feb are also starting. Essentially it is 2 Late fees for Jan and Feb and $20 a day when it hits 11 Feb.

I am taking these guys to small claims court on the 23rd of March so will I be allowed to charge late fees until the court date?

Hope I explained myself well enough.

Thanks BP
