Criminal charges are not applicable. Financial responsibility is to the extent the lender wishes to pursue collection of the debt including but not necessarily a lawsuit. An exception in some states of a person committing a criminal offense would be if a replevin order is in effect and the vehicle is deliberately "hidden" from the repossession agent.

Can a creditor still repossess a car for nonpayment if the title has been signed over in good faith without a lien?
Certainly, especially if you signed an agreement. Ethically, you do not own the car if you have not paid for it and the creditor deserves to be paid. It sounds like you are trying to take advantage of the other party. Figure out your finances and pay up.

If you press charges against your babys father can he still get custody?
Yes, unless somehow his charges cause the courts to decide otherwise, but in where this looks to be going, its more of trying to press stat rape charges on him, and that is a non violent crime and in most cases could get him in a lot of trouble, but serves no right to deny him his parental rights.

What if a creditor is not on your credit report but trying to collect a debt?
You must pay all of your legitimate debts. A creditor is not required to report a debt to a credit bureau in order to collect the debt you owe.
What is a charge off on your credit?
A charge off is when a creditor basically gives up trying to collect the debt and "charges off" the debt from their books. They do this more for their benefit than the one who owes. It allows them to close out the file and clean up their records. This looks especially bad on a credit report.
If you hide your car from repo are you breaking the law Florida?
More than likely you will not be prosecuted for hiding the car. But is this really what you want to do? Do you want to own a vehicle that can be repossessed at any time day or night at any location? Do you want the creditor calling you and trying to recover their property that you are hiding? You signed a contract to pay this loan off. You have defaulted on the contract so do what is right and save some money in the process. Voluntarily return the vehicle to the creditor which will reduce your creditor's expenses in retaking the car, and you will reduce the amount you will owe the creditor. But remember, you will still be responsible for paying any deficiency on your loan, and your creditor may still enter the repossession on your credit report. Sooner or later they will get the vehicle, and the longer it takes them the more it will cost you. They will seek a judgment against you. The judgment is the difference between what you owe on your loan and what your creditor receives when reselling your vehicle. A creditor who has followed the proper procedures for repossession and sale is generally allowed to sue you for a deficiency judgment to collect the loan balance. You should have talked to the creditor before any of this happened and tried to work out a new payment plan. But you did not do that, and now you are making it worse by hiding the car. Think about it.
I have a 8600.00 undecured debt with acredit card co. I have been trying desperately to come to a fair agreement with them and get back on a monthly plan. Is it legal for them to deny me this?
Outside of court ruling, your creditor is not required to accept any plan of payment other than what was stipulated in the original agreement that you signed with them.

In some situations, YES. The threat of it is uasually enough to get the car repoed.
Can a creditor sue you if you are trying to pay them?
It would depend on what the term "trying to pay" means. Once a debt goes into default it is due and payable in full. Any creditor that takes payments on a defaulted debt is doing so outside of the bounds of that contract as a courtesy. So, if the debt in question has been defaulted, then yes, the creditor may sue you and take all remedies available to them under law.
Your brother died tragically your son inherits his estate estate has to be run by an executor until son turns 21 2 and a half yrs Over 100000 in credit card debt What do you do?
After the applicable statute of limitations runs (typically four years on a credit card debt), the creditor will have a tough time collecting. If the creditor sues, you have to plead statute of limitations as an affirmative defense, but it is a good defense. ==Additional Answer== In some states there is a specific statutory period during which a creditor can make a claim against an estate. In Massachusetts, for example, once an estate has been filed for probate a creditor has one year to make a claim. After that period the creditor is barred from trying to collect from the estate. Check your state laws. If there is an executor then the estate must have been filed in probate court. If the creditor has already filed a claim against the estate in probate court then the claim will need to be paid before any disbursements are made from the assets of the estate. The creditor will not need to bring suit to collect and the claim filed will preserve its right to collect.
