Can the police sell your car without a title?

In: Vehicle Titles [Edit categories]

Answer:

In most states, Yes. Paperwork can be filed to conduct a lien sale. This can even be done by towing companies and such. However, whomever holds the title should be notified at least 30 days prior to the sale. At that time, debt can be paid and vehicle removed from sale bill.
