my girlfriend and i live together; i pay most of the bills. due to credit issues, her mom bought a car and gave it to us as long as we make the payments (loan and insurance) on time every month. we paid for the down payment on the car, have made every payment on time, and have paid all of the insurance as well. her mom has never had the car in her possession. we were given the only key to it and drove it off the lot even. i can prove payments through bank statements. my girlfriend and her mom are fighting right now and her mom wants the car dropped off to her house and turned over to her. if not, she's threatening to call the police and report that we stole it. I believe the mom's name is the only one on the title and paper work; i don't think my girlfriends name is. i would have to check. we also have all of the paper work too, including title i think. can she legally demand the car back even though i can prove we've made all of the payments, etc? obviously, we could prove we havent stolen the car with bank statements, but is there any recourse or must the vehicle be returned on demand? isn't possession nine/tenths of the law?
