Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Canada

Car ownership

My ex-partner bought me a vehicle as a gift. That is why it is registered in my name. I chipped in for a portion of it in cash (maybe 15% of total) which i gave to him and he then paid the whole charge by cheque. We split and I sold the truck. Now he wants the money I got from the sale. Do I owe him anything?

Re: Car ownership

No. If it is a gift then the title and ownership belong to you. If it was a loan or only part of the truck was a gift, then he may have an interest or a claim.
