Eviction process and military affidavit

[Edward Westwood]

I live in Maryland and have a tenant we are trying to evict due to late rent. I cannot get or currently have her ssn # or birthday. Judge asked for a military affidavit to show that she is not active duty. I cannot obtain this piece of information unless I have her ssn and birthdate. Any suggestions on how to proceed? I very new to being a landlord and am guilty of not going through the necessary process initially. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

This is not legal advice... In Virginia, the military affidavit is just a form stating you have no knowledge of each defended in a suit is, or is not in the military. For example, I could put "Tenant is not military to my knowledge, because they did not disclose that that they are active military on their lease or rental application, or at anytime did they disclose such information while renting with us".  The courts will process that form and the defendant will have a chance to raise that if they are otherwise. Key element is to be truthful, and not make a false claim.

I think this is the form your looking for, I could be wrong: http://www.courts.state.md.us/district/forms/civil/dccv001f.pdf
