Yes, if the vehicle is not protected by the state's exemption amount. If the judgment is not by the lender who holds the lien on said vehicle it is unlikely that the judgment debtor would engage in such action especially if there are other means of enforcing the judgment writ, such as garnishment of wages or levy of a bank account. I don't understand what is the exemption amount?

Not directly (at least not legally). She could obtain a court judgment against you and have your assets seized.


If one of my vehicles is taken over by some one making the payments can they take the paid for car in a judgment?

Interesting question. If the person that took over the payments did not actually transfer the vehicle into his name (e.g.: you still owned it 'on paper'), unfortunately, yes. If the car was listed as an asset belonging to you, it could be seized.


If a car was not included in your bankruptcy but you later change your mind and decide to stop making payments can the lender have a judgment issues for the balance?

I DO NOT KNOW WHAT STATE YOU ARE FROM OR WHAT ATTORNEY YOU HAD. I KNOW MY CAR WAS LISTED AND I MADE PAYMENTS... BUT I KNOW THAT IF I MISSED PAYMENTS, THEY WOULD TAKE MY CAR... SO,NO...IT IS ILLEGAL FOR THEM TO ASK YOU FOR ANY PAYMENTS AT ALL. HOPE IT HELPS?!

Can a civil judgment result in the repossession of a car that is co owned?

If the civil judgment is due to not making payments for an auto loan on the car that is in question, then yes, that car may be repossessed as a result of the judgment. If there is a judgment against both owners of the car (i.e., if the co-owners are both listed as defendants), then the car is considered an asset and may be repossessed unless there is proof that the car is required for one or all of the co-owners to earn money in order to pay the judgment. If there is a judgment against only one of the owners of the car (i.e., if one of the co-owners is listed as a defendant, but ANY of the others are not), then no, the vehicle may not be repossessed.
