Intent to Fraud
Almost a year ago my husband and I were going to rent a home. I gave the realtor a check to hold. My husband signed a rental agreement, not a lease. Things happened and we were not able to get the house. Called realtor told them, they said we were responsible for the house. I told them not to deposit the check that I was stopping payment on check. Almost 1 year later I am being charged with intent to fraud, yet we never took possesion of the home and I never signed anything. What should I do and can they do that?

  1. Re: Intent to Fraud
    A rental agreement is equivalent to a lease. Without reviewing it, I cannot give you any specific guidance or determine what defenses may be available. If only your husband signed it, it may not be enforceable against you. If you or your husband have been sued in civil court or charged with a crime, you should retain legal counsel immediately.
