I was awarded judgement on 4/24/12 for $869 rent & costs. May rent was added to tenants account on May 1 (687). Tenant made a payment on 5/16/12 (510) which I posted against May rent and not the judgement. No memo stating "apply to judgement" I had contacted the DJ and asked him if this was legal and he said as long as there is nothing specifically on the money order like "for LT-1/2012" then I can apply it as I see fit.
