My question involves real estate located in the State of: California

If the landlord increases the rent of an dwelling which is rented on a month to*month basis but the tenant continues to pay the previous or lesser amount and the landlord accepts the payment & cashes the check, the landlord loses all legal recourse to collect the difference.* But does this apply to monthly*HOA dues payments?* For example, Wes pays $300 per month HOA dues; his association raises the dues to $325, but Wes continues to pay $300 and the association cashes the checks every*month.* Six months later, they come after Wes, threatening to place a lien on his property unless he pays the $150 difference.* Does the association have any legal recourse to collect the $150?
