Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

Assuming that the landlord complied with all of the requirements for towing vehicles from private property, the landlord does have the right to have the car towed - from their perspective it appeared to have been abandoned since you did ot take it with you when you moved. From your description of the events, I cannot tell if s/he complied with all of the requirements of doing so, but assuming s/he did, then your only option is to pay the fees and recover the car before they lien-sale it for the unpaid towing and storage fees. You need to find someone to borrow the money from to recover your car before it is too late.
