How can I prove my tenant falsified her credit report ?
I have a tenant that I had to legally evict. There is a date set by which the local sheriff’s department will come and forcibly evict her. Once she is out, I want to pursue charging her with providing a false credit report, as I am very certain she had provided one. The real estate broker who screened her showed me the credit report, which looked flawless with a 741 credit rating. When trouble escalated during the eviction process, I ran a criminal report and found a recent bankruptcy. How is that possible with excellent credit? Once my tenant is out, I want to press charges against her, but don’t know how to prove she falsified her records. Any advice on this subject would be most appreciated.

Why? What is there to gain?
