Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Maryland

My daughter bought a car with money from a loan that her grandmother got through a bank. The Bank and MVA office told my daughter that she did not have to put her grandmothers name on the title. My daughter made 6mo worth of car payments and then her grandmother got mad at her, filed court papers stating she paid for a car that she never recieved. The police and grandmother went to my daughters work and took the car. What if any legal actions can my daughter take?

The "court papers" you referred to should have been responded to when served upon your daughter. It sounds like either the grandmother got a judgment for repossession that your daughter ignored when she got the court papers, or she posted a bond after claiming the car was hers. Your daughter should take the papers to an attorney for a consultation who can review them and determine her best options.
