Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Maryland
Cosigner rights to collateral
I am the primary and my soon to be ex-husband is a cosigner on a vehicle loan. I am the only name on the title. The payment was one month behind and I took repossesion of the vehicle. Does he have any legal recourse?

Re: Cosigner rights to collateral
He has no right to possession since his name isn't on the title. However, if there is any equity in the vehicle he has a claim to his share of it as part of the divorce.
