A client of mine received a discharge in 2010. Part of the debt he
discharged arose from an unlawful detainer judgment entered in 2008. He
recently applied to rent an apartment and the landlord rejected him on the
basis of the unlawful detainer judgment. I have not had this issue in one
of my cases before. Has someone encountered this before and what have you
done? Is it a discharge violation to keep it on the UD record (note that
it does not show in the traditional credit reports only on some UD specific
report? Will it be a FCRA violation after 7 years? Is there some fair
housing authority that may be invoked to keep from being denied the rental
opportunity for this old debt? Any and all input would be appreciated.
