Answer:
If your landlord accepted your late rent payment without any conditions or objections, this acceptance typically waives their right to terminate the rental agreement for that late payment. According to K.S.A. § 58-2566, accepting late rent without reservation means the landlord cannot terminate the lease for that breach unless otherwise agreed after the breach occurred.
