  • You cannot compare dates as strings.

    where {$_.CustomAttribute5 -le [datetime]::Today ....

    It is more like that the attribute is a string:

    where {[datetime]($_.CustomAttribute5) -le [datetime]::Today ....

    Here is the filter for nulls:

    where {($_CustomAttribute8 -and $_.CustomAttribute5) -and [datetime]($_.CustomAttribute5) -le [datetime]::Today }
