My husband took off in my car and has been gone for weeks

[Deidra777]

Hello, I'm in need of some advice please. I found out my husband is a drug user (crack cocaine) and several weeks ago he left in my car which is only registered to me because his credit is bad and I have only heard from him once and he is refusing to bring my car back. I called the police but they said that since we are married there is nothing that they can do because it can't be reported as stolen. He has left me and our children and leaving me to pay all the bills. We have a big home and lots of bills. I just had to make the car payment and insurance payment on the car and don't want to ruin my credit because i've worked so hard to rebuild it. Anyway, he no longer has a job and i have no idea where he is at. I'm pretty sure he is still here in Texas where we live at some drug house. I need my car back desperately because if something happens while he is driving that car like a wreck or something it will be me that is ultimately responsible since the car is registered to me. I'm definitely going to divorce this no good man but funds are low right now. He ruined my childrens christmas. Does anyone have any advice. How on earth should i proceed with my car? Thanks so much.

your sittuation is quite percarious. You can file for divorce, and child custody through your local legal aid office. You can ask the court to grant you temp order(s) for custody of kids, support, and property.
Good luck.
