Payment plan for Tenant late on Rent

[Fernando Roman Romero]

Hello! My Current tenant has been late on rent. He lost his job and found another one fairly quickly so I set him up on a Payment Plan to pay back his owed rent for the half of October that he owes to December 2022. The Plan states that he will pay every 2 weeks beginning on December 9th (he had some complications with his hire date and started work a week later than anticipated). He paid the first payment and then made a smaller payment ahead of schedule and then stopped paying. He told me his brother passed away and he would be out of work for a few days. I told him I would work with him and asked him when he could make a payment. He gave me a date and I agreed that it would be okay. When the day came he did not pay and I went ahead and posted an eviction notice on his door giving him a week to move out (generously). He stated to me that he just begun work and wouldn't have a check for another week which is next Friday, his move-out date is this Monday. By this time he will owe all of January's rent + late fees as well. He has asked me to work with him but at this point I am not sure. He has been going to work I assume, because he is never home but feels like he is just digging himself a hole. Though I did tell him if he could get his Payment Plan up to date by paying his missed payments before the date of the eviction he could stay and continue his payments. But now he is trying to give me legal advice as to why I should not evict him because a judge will favor him in court. I guess the only thing that worries me about that is the fact that I forgot to take a picture of the Notice on the door and did not mail out one the day I posted it. Do I need to Post another eviction notice, take a picture and mail one out as well?
