Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

On april 19 2011 my paw paw sold me a car. For 3000 dollars and the trade of my 1996 honda accord. I have a bill of sell and the insurance is in my name. on May 18 2011 my paw paw came to my work and stole my car. On the title he is listed as the Leinholder. I am up to date on all my payments and i have also traded him a 2001 Pontiac because he asked for it. May 18 i called the cops and reported my car stolen, they said nothing can be done until the car is seen on the property or on the roads. He has addmitted to having the car. The cop on my case went to talk to the judge about getting a warrent, she claimed she didnt want to get involved in a family matter. He claims he is keeping my car because i havent paid him. Even if that was true it hasn't been a full month. What is the next action i should take? Also my insurance company said there is nothing they can do since i dont have full coverage.

This is still not a real estate question. We have your side. "Paw Paw" has his side of the story. If you believe you are correct, you can hire a lawyer and spend a lot of money on a lawsuit. Otherwise, the best option is to resolve your issue with "Paw Paw" and don't turn family disputes into legal disputes.
