What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? North Carolina
Hi, I run a pawnshop in NC and I ran into a situation. An individual came in and got a loan on an ATV. In the state of NC you don't need titles for ATVs so I gave him a loan on it. 3 months later he didn't pick up the ATV and I sold it. Shortly after selling it, I get a letter saying that the ATV had a lien on it and I'm being sued for over $10K (the balance left on the ATV).
My question is, Do I legally owe them money? The customer signed the loan agreement stating that its not stolen or has an liens on it.
