Tenant keeps not paying on time
A restaurant that’s doing great business feels he shouldn’t pay the rent on time for the last 4 months every month we had to post 3 day notice to pay rent or quit on his front door for him to deign to pay his rent
What legal action we could take to make him understand he is not the landlord we are he must pay his rent on time?

As a former business owner, there are times of the month where it seems that all the cash goes out at once. If that coincides with rent payment, that may be why he is delaying. Perhaps it is as simple as him paying on the 15th instead of the 1st. Do some digging to see if there is something more at play or if he is just being difficult because he is a difficult person.
