Help Please

I know this is not the right thread area but Im hoping anyone can help! My issue is my ex and I have a car in our names together! Which we got after our other car was totaled by her friend the plan was for the friend to make payments to my ex to make up for my ex putting the down payment so She put the down payment and I have been making all payments on what is owed including insurance! We r not together there for I either want the car or off the lease! How can I do either one?

Not sure you can do either. To whom is the car titled? Is your name on the title alone or does it read "and" your ex? Or does it read you "or" your ex? If your name is on it and you are paying and her friend has possession of the car, REPOSSESS it. Take the paperwork to the police station, show them its titled TO you and say that this woman has the car and you want it back. Ask them how to do so lawfully. You could call her bluff and tell her if she does not surrender the vehicle, you will report it as stolen (if you are the titled owner of the car). Your other option (and more lawful) is to continue to pay for the car, and when it is paid off, take her to court and sue her for the amount of the car, breech of contract, etc.

You may also want to talk to the police about criminal conversion----this is a civil matter regarding her failure to pay but you may be able to press for some type of criminal charges since it clearly was not her intention to pay. May not work, but worth a try.
