Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida
Right of use of privately owned Automobile
If a primary & cosigner have a car together. The primary person got the car only b/c the secondary person with more credit cosigned for the car. The registration to the car is in both of their names. It is listed on all papers as Primary & secondary. For example the registration says the car is register to Msxxxxxx(primary) & ms xxxxxx(xecondary). The back has the title to the car & it is listed the same way. The primary person pays on the vehicle all the time, but the secondary person now wants to use the vehicle sometime. Uder the law, does both parties have equal right to possess the vehicle or does one have more than the other?

Its like taking a bath together; you're equally as wet. It sounds like this will be a continuing rpoblem unless you reach an understanding. The car may have to be sold to preserve your relationship. JMC

If both of your names are on the title than the car is legally both of yours and the other person is etitled to use the vehicle equally.
