One of the guys from the local Corvette club was without his usual ride on Thursday night at our gathering of gear heads. Turns out the title to his vette was in his OR his soon to be ex wifes name so when he wasn't looking she sold his car out from under him. Unbelievable !!!! Be careful how you title your cars folks.

That sucks for sure, Titles are always in my name or both, I wonder why he put it in her name? Live and learn. If the title was in her name it wasn't his car.

ok guys in florida you can have the title listed in both names but the or designates the ability for either party to sell without consent of the other. It was a big saver when the elderly population would have a spouse die and want to sell the vehicle. Guess it can backfire when the living parties fall out of grace with each other.

It has always been the same way here in Nevada, And requires both to sign, Or, one or the other can sign it off.

If the divorce had already been started there may have been something in the paperwork prohibiting such a sale by either party. She could be in trouble for this........he needs to make his lawyer aware of this. At least that's the way it works in Arkansas.
