ET (11:02 UT) on June 20, so the two events are separated by about 12 hours. The last time the solstice and the full moon were about 12 hours apart was back in 1986. The solstice and the full moon were separated by just a few hours but were on different days for some time zones in 1967. We have to go back much further for the last time that both events were aligned nearly simultaneously: They were less than an hour apart on June 21, 1948.
Therefore, landlords must use good judgment and set the late fee at a reasonable amount. Under California Civil Code section 1671, late fees may be considered liquidated damages, the damage being the late rent payments. However, late fees are not considered damages that can be deducted from a security deposit. Late fees also are not collectible as part of the eviction process. In other words, landlords cannot ask for late fees as part of the amount owed as past due rent.
Many landlords set a percentage for a late fee. A standard amount for a late fee is 3 to 5 percent of the monthly rental amount. If you pay $750 per month, this would be about $23 to $38.
