What is the name of your state: Michigan
My ex-wife took my vehicle title and had it transferred to her. She now has the vehicle with a title in her name, along with license plates. I have requested documentation from the Michigan Secretary of State to pursue this matter in small claims. I can prove by "my signature" on the original title that I did not sell this car to her. The Secretary of State has indicated that if I get a court order to reinstate me has the vehicle owner, the will follow the court order. I want the small claims court to award me a judement of $1.00 and order that the vehicle title be restored to me. This is my question:
A review of the small claims law seems to indicate that I cannot proceed in small claims if there is fraud involved. Is this correct? The Blue Book value of the vehicle is less than the $3,000 cap for district court. How can I pursue this matter?
