Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida
Florida- car title transfer
I sold a car in March 2009, and apparently the title still has not been transferred into the new owners' name. Is there anything I can do to force the new owners to do so? We now live out of state, and after leaving messages for the new owners, have not heard from them.

Re: Florida- car title transfer
On the back of the title there is a section that you, the owner selling the vehicle, would send back to the state of Florida when it is sold, so that the state is on notice that there is a new owner. Then the new owner has a certain amount of time to file their registration. If you did not follow these steps, I would contact the state.
