Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Massachusetts

Vehicle Rights

I purchased a motorcycle, bill of sale to me, title in my name. My ex boyfriend's family is storing the motorcycle due to he is in jail and I was unable to move the bike when I relocated. I am now requesting the motocycle and they are indicating I need his permission because he asked them to hold the bike and they were under the impression he owned it. I explained to them he doesn't, I do and I want to sell the bike now. I did purchase it for us to ride and for him to teach me but we are no longer together. He will claim it was a gift but it was not.

Re: Vehicle Rights

Presumably, if you provide them with copies of the title and the bill of sale, they will see conclusively that you own the motorcycle. If that approach fails, you will probably have to start a court action to force them to turn over the bike. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions in that regard.

Re: Vehicle Rights

If you've got the title, call the cops. Consult with a local attorney.
