On February 10, 2022, the Ninth Circuit affirmed a California District Court decision in Moran v. The Screening Pros, LLC, finding that while a credit reporting agency (CRA) must remove criminal charges and related information from a tenant screening report within seven years of the case filing (not the case dismissal), the CRA did not violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) because its failure was not negligent of willful.
In Moran, Plaintiff submitted a housing application in February 2010. The landlord denied his application because the background check revealed three dismissed criminal charges and a conviction. While the oldest charge was filed in 2000, it was dismissed in 2004. Plaintiff argued that the inclusion of the 2000 charge in the screening report violated the FCRA because it was more than seven years old. The CRA claimed the 2004 dismissal date was the operative date under the statute. While the Ninth Circuit found that the appropriate date to analyze when a CRA should remove criminal records is the date the DA filed the charges, the court upheld the dismissal of the case because Plaintiff failed to show the violation was negligent or willful. If you received a lease denial from a tenant screening report showing old criminal charges or inaccurate tenant information, you should contact a Las Vegas credit attorney as soon as possible.

I was financially unstable, because my store got robbed; I went bankrupt. I tried getting my business back in shape through business loans; but all my applications were declined due to my poor credit score. I was looking for help online; then I came across positive reviews of 760Plus Credit Score on different credit forums. I looked them up and discovered they were highly rated, so I contacted them. I was amazed when I pulled my report after 11days: All my negative collections were cleared and my credit score changed from 590s to 780s. Thanks to you guys and I really appreciate it. If you have similar issues and need fix, reach out to them via 760PLUSCREDITSCORE at GMAIL dot COM

My credit score had been low for a very long time due to some negative items. About a month ago I hired 760Plus Credit Score to help me fix my credit. Their service is top notch; 11 Hard inquiries, 8 collections, 2 charge offs and an eviction deleted so far . My Equifax report went from 681 to 754 in 30 days, I have zero negative accounts now. I have been giving guidelines to keep my credit on the right track. I'm recommending their service as promised. You can reach out to them via 760pluscreditscore@gmail.com

There are two ways to fix your credit. DIY: do-it-yourself or hiring a Credit Expert. DIY is normally slow and very stressful with little result( I tried this for a very long time). If you’re looking to hire a professional credit repair company; I strongly 760PLUS CREDIT SCORE, they're the best in terms of credit repair. They helped me realize my long time dream of becoming a homeowner. They can be reached via 760PLUSCREDITSCORE ON GMAIL.

What more can I say working with XAPCREDITSOLUTION at GMAIL dot COM has been great. I won a prize and XAP has been fixing my bad credit. He is the TRUTH. He is the GOAT on fixing bad credit. I’ve had great conversations with him. I’ve gotten numerous negative items removed from my report. I’ve gotten school loans removed within 2 weeks as well as credit card debts. My credit score was restored from low 540 to high 700s. It took a very long time for me to get bad credit and I thought it would take time to get everything that’s negative removed but XAP did it in less than a few weeks. I would recommend anyone that really wants to get their credit repaired. XAP will make it happen and assist you in numerous ways to obtain higher credit limits, loans, e.t.c. God bless.

I strongly recommend JerryLink Credit Group. They helped me so much after already paying Ovation, who just took our money and did nothing for a year. I contacted jerrylinkgroup@gmail.Com, and they immediately showed results; they even guided me on what our best solution for our trade-in for a new vehicle would be with a lower approximate % and not to mention how well they informed you and explained to you everything that's going on with your credit. Huge thanks to Jerry and his crew for a job well done.
