Rebuttal of a CDC declaration.

[John Teachout]

We're executing a writ of possession tomorrow morning and the magistrates office said that if the tenant presents a CDC declaration that it will stop it. So we have a team of helpers and all the gear to get this house back from the non paying tenant. They were issued a pay/quit notice, were posted by the court with a dispossessory and didn't file an answer within the requisite 7 days. So by default the next step is a writ. We'll meet the county authorities there tomorrow to do the set out of all their possessions (hate it's come to this) but if they present the CDC form we can't move forward with it. The issue is that if they do present a form, it will most certainly be fraudulent as they stopped paying rent when we gave them notice we wouldn't renew their contract. (they've been awful)

So has anyone ever tried to rebut the tenant's claim? I doubt many municipalities make any effort to verify anything but it is perjury if they lie on it.
