You can sue ANYBODY for ANYTHING............winning is another story. 04/13/07 - Yes, you can sue them..problem is, you won't get much. There are limitations on the fines. Instead of suing them for false reporting, you have to go after them for defamation..etc. I had all three credit reporting agencies that kept putthing things back on my report after they were provided proof that the debt was not mine. We ended up in court and I ended up with $36,000 in my pocket. The information never showed up again. :o)
