To turn you down for the apartment after they already said you can move in  since you have a DUI from 5 years ago  they said it hasn't been 10 Years yet so therefore I couldn't move in but it was not a felony it was  my first DUI and I blew a .09  and then a lady on here  from New York New York yes I'm speaking to you if you read this  says that  it should be that way, because people like me will spend our money or rent money on alcohol wrong answer lady I haven't drank in over five and a half years almost 6 ever since I got that DUI quit my money I spend doesn't my bills and my children what would you know about that you shouldn't post things and be judgmental if you don't know a damn thing shame on you!
