Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Illinois
Possible Discrimination?
Several months ago my wife and I filed Chapter 13 for debts we incurred when we were young. Recently we tried for an apartment but we were turned down because of this. I just want to know if this is legal. Does a landowner have a right to turn us down because f Bankrupcy?

Yes, credit history is a legal ground for refusing to give credit.
