no you cannot have a repoman arrested on your property, as long as all his paperwork is in order for taking the vehicle.however "," the repoman cannot cut any locks(fence lock), etc. But if its not locked they can open it and take the vehicle they have paper work on.***unless the repossession agent has an order from a judge, you can ask them to leave your property. If they refuse, you can call your local police station, and have them escorted off of your property. If they then refuse with police, they can and will be arrested.* * *


What are the Laws in Texas about a Police helping in a repo?

If the repossessor has a written assignment from the lienholder to repossess the vehicle for nonpayment, 9 out of 10 times, the police will allow the repossessor to take the vehicle. No, Use of a Police Officer or Police involvement in self-help repossession introduces the state into a civil matter and provides the foundation for a wrongful repossession suit against the Secured Party, the repossession agent, the police officer and the police department.The authority to use Self-Help repossession is granted in the UCC 9-609 and Comment 3 of 9-609 specifically states "This section does not authorize a Secured Party who repossesses without judicial process to utilize the assistance of a law enforcement officer."Simply put if you want to use a police office to assist in a repossession you better go to court and obtain a Writ of Replevin/Sequestrian first.
