The National Consumer Law Center has published a new article on the denial of rental housing applications based upon tenant screening reports containing erroneous or obsolete criminal record histories. The article is available online here: FCRA Remedies When Criminal Records Lead to Rental Denials | NCLC Digital Library. The article explains that tenants denied housing based on those record histories may have claims under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
For more information, see NCLC's book Fair Credit Reporting available in print and online at the New Hampshire Law Library.
