What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
I took over motorcycle payments for a friend who didn't want the bike anymore. I paid her $3000.00 down and I have made $3943.94 in payments since April 2, 2007. We never really had a contract but I have a piece of paper stating I paid her the $3000.00 down. I also haave a payment history for the bike that I printed from the website with my information. The bike is in her name. I was working on getting it financed in my name but not quickly enough for her.
She came to my home on July 1, 2008 and demanded the bike because she said the payments were always late. So, she took the bike from my home. She threatened to report the bike stolen if I did not turn in over to her that day. She said, when she left my house that day, I can have the bike back if it financed in my name. Since this has happened, there is someone else riding the bike and she will not take any of my phone calls or e-mails.
What can I do about this? I have put alot of money into that bike.
