Yes, the Trustee can and it does happen. Every creditor that has a secured lien must file the appropriate paperwork with the appropriate state agency and in most states, doing it within a certain number of days. Normally 20. If they don't do it timely, the Trustee can avoid the lien because it is voidable. In bankruptcy, Trustees have the power to void certain types of liens and unperfected or faulty-perfected liens are one of them. What to do? Easiest is to give the car to the Trustee. Then you may want to consider a separate cause of action against the car dealership for faulty perfection filing. May be able to recover the fair value of your use of the car. You won't have to pay the note back on the car. More opinions from FAQ Farmers: * Probably. You always have the right of appeal, though. And then a judge would decide if it is allowable.

Why would a trustee in a bankruptcy ask for authority to employ an attorney?
The usual reason is the trustee has found evidence that indicates the bankruptcy filer has non-exempt assets that were not reported. This however, does not mean the trustee necessarily believes it was intentional; perhaps the filer did not realize he was owed funds that should have been reported. In rare cases it is because the trustee suspects dishonest activity relating to the bankruptcy. In extreme situations the trustee may refer the case to the U.S.Trustee Office for further action.
