Yes this possibly could be considered late, but it all might depend on the postmark. You have it now so it would seem reasonable and more economic not to go to court about it.

It is probably late but the judge will be more concerned about whether it is made instead of whether it is a few days late.

Probably not. It was mailed on time. Besides, even if it is late, the judge is going to say no harm, no foul.

Good grief, he mailed you the payment on the 30th day. Beyond that, he can't control when it's delivered. Sure, it would kind of him to mail it earlier, but the point is you were paid. Be patient. Be grateful he's not a deadbeat.
