I can also run criminal background checks on my state DPS site and check litigation on local county sites.

L T,The juvenile petty criminals stole from you.

My bad if my question was in any way offensive to anyone..

Whether there was criminal activity or perhaps it was just mistakenly delivered and processed by a large company (explaining the fact that there was no endorsement) we won't know for a while.

This usually consists of a criminal background check, and infrequently a copy of your credit report.The experience requirement is often waived for attorneys or equivalent experience.

Does Experian run criminal checks as well, or is it simply credit?

Explore your options, the more you can learn about section 8 and other housing programs (vets, ex-criminals, other programs) the better.

As for the supposedly offensive comments by @Bill Gulley you guys need to get a grip.

I am the recipient here and it's just like when dealing with harassment for example.........you may not think something is offensive but it's how it's received by the individual.  

Maybe this is why you take so much offense as the truth hurts...?
