Legal Question in Personal Injury in California
I had a POA from my friend who left to Afghanistan to sell his car, we would continuesly ask what we needed to do and where to get the information. Since we had never sold a car before it was hard for us, no contract was signed between the buyer and himself nor us (he did not want to sign one in the first place, they are friends) now the engine is blown out and she is returning it. So my question is, can we get in trouble for not signing a contract with her, can it come back to us and we have to pay?

Oral contracts are as legally binding as written, but more difficult to prove. If yo did everything per instructions from the owner you h ave no liability. If the buyer was at fault for the damaged engine, or she bought it as is and you were unaware of any engine problem, she can not return it to you.
