Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
Take back co-signed car if title in both names
I co-signed for a car, and the title is in both our names, my name listed first. I have made all the payments and the loan is in both our names, again my name listed first. She hasn't paid me back for any of the loan and I want the car back. Do I have the right to take the car back? Can I sell it without her signature?

Re: Take back co-signed car if title in both names
You have as much right to the car as she does. And a stronger claim to title.
But you can't sell it without her signature since she legally has an undivided one-half interest in the car.
