Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in South Carolina

Default
I have sold a automobile financed through a secured loan. I do not have the funds to pay off the entire balance. The
bank, by mistake allowed me to keep the title, and because
of financial difficulties, I sold the auto and used part of
the funds to pay back payments on my mortgage. What recourse
does the bank have against me, and what is the best way to
correct this problem.

Thanks

Re: Default

You should go to a lawyer and see if he can negotiate a partial payoff of the remaining amount owed upon the car and a personal note for the balance.

I don't understand how you got the clean title to pass on to your buyer. You should not be trying to negotiate this matter on your own.

You did not deal with the bank in good faith.
