I tried to pay my landlord within the time frame but he said its too late. He is counting the 3 days from the10th but he didnt mail it until the11th. Now I have been served eviction papers. Can I get this dismissed at court since I tried to pay him during the right timeframe.

Many things can happen in court but I would strongly suggest that you speak with an attorney there as to the service issue (does not seem it was served properly) and regarding his actions. You need to come up woth a strategy under your law. If you go before the court and offer to pay and advise that you tendered rent and it was refused the court may or may not be seen in your favor. Good luck.
