I co-signed for a truck for my then significant other in March 2001. I did so ONLY because she said she would make arrangements with a friend, who is somewhat well-off, to take over refinancing and co-signing within two weeks. In order for her to drive the car off the lot at that moment, I co-signed, trusting that my co-ownership of this truck would be temporary. Subsequently, a few months after we broke up, in the middle of the night, she drove off with the SUV that is paid for in full, with both our names on the title, and left me with her new truck and payments of $565 a month! I traded that truck in that same day for another vehicle which, I had to put down 3k and pay $264 a month! Technically, we should have sold the SUV, split the 'profit' and I could have bought a used vehicle outright from a private owner. I am also in posession of a signed, notarized, letter from the friend who collaborates that he was indeed, asked to co-sign on the truck but he never heard from her again. I feel that I was mislead into signing for that vehicle and I want to sue her for the financial debt I have incurred due to BOTH of her actions of stealing the vehicle from me and misleading me into co-signing. Do I stand a chance in court?
