What is the name of your state? ny, ny
At the time my finacee and I were in the market for a car a friend of ours mentioned that she was \looking for someone to take over the payments of her vehicle in essence purchasing it. She was a few months behind in payments and the car was on repossesion so the we paid the past due and took the car. after a year she calls and says she wants her car back, but she feels she does not owe me back the year worth of payments plus the money I paid as a "downpayment" which was to cancel the repo. Her argument is that the agreement is that the payments were to be made on time everymonth and we messed up her credit up by having late payments. we did run into some issues and the car went into repo while in our possesion bbut it was taken care of. At the time she asked for the car back all was in good standing. I want to sue her for the money because my argument is that at no point in time was the agreement that if payments were late, she would take back the car. I gave her the vehicle because legally it is in her name, however i do have proof of what i paid into it. I don't want the car back because I had to buy a car. I couldn't take the risk of being without a car. Do I have a case?
