What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? PENNSYLVANIA


I recently sold my car 2 my sister. Yes I realize now it was a bad idea. SHe was in a bind and needed a car & i was selling mine. She was unable to get a loan so I left the loan in my name. This was on October 1st 2008. She now has come to me and stated that she cannot afford the payments & wants to give the car back. I know she has the money we had went over a budget.
I printed out a buyer & seller agreement online & added a few minor details that were specific to our situation. This was signed & taken to a notary.
If my sister chooses not to pay will this hold up in court or am I fighting a battle I may not win.

the document says that she will agree to pay the payments until the end of the loan & the car was sold as is. She is also on my insurance since that made her rate cheaper.

if it was signed before a notary it should. What that will get you remains to be seen in any state. Especially, here in texas.
 
So she did not give you any money for the car, she just agreed to make the payments? If so I would just take the car back and sell it to someone else. Tell her she owes you at least 1 payment
