Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
I loaned an individual $2500 and he signed a promissory note using a vehicle as collateral. He has defaulted on the promissory note and when I went to claim the vehicle, he did not sign the title. I since have filed a complaint with the local JP and an awaiting for a trial date. Will I ever get my money or his vehicle?

Probably not.
From your story, I'm guessing that you didn't put a lien on the vehicle when you made the loan. That was a mistake.
