Partial rent payment during eviction?

[Judy J.]

I've looked all over the PA regulations, but can't find this. In Pittsburgh/PA, if the landlord accepts a partial payment of the back rent that is due during an eviction, does that invalidate the eviction judgement? We have the order of possession and they are being evicted for nonpayment of rent. The statutes address when ALL of the back rent and fees are paid.

Josh, I will contact a lawyer, thanks. I have checked local laws. In PA its the Landlord Tenant Act, and it does not mention partial payments at all. I can't watch cases in court as I live in California, work fulltime and the property is in PA.
