Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
x boyfriend wants his car back
My x boyfriend bought me a car. I am on the title he is not. We are jointly on the loan. We broke up and I can no longer make the payments. He has taken the car back but the title is in my name and he can not get a new tag. I have an outstanding ticket that is preventing him from renuing the old one. The bank will not release the title untile the note is paid. I rufuse to pay the ticket so he can tag the car and use it while its in my name. What is the liability for me. He is threatening to sue me if i dont pay my ticket. What should I do?

Re: x boyfriend wants his car back
He can't sue you for not paying your ticket, and he can't sue you for being unable to use your car (it's yours because the title is in your name). Besides, if he gets in a wreck while driving your car, you are liable, so you don't want him driving your car. One other thing to know, though, if it matters: if someone doesn't pay on the car, it'll wreck your credit.
