No.
Entering a building to recover a vehicle is considered a breach of peace whether the garage the door was closed and/or locked or not.
The exception would be if the recovery agent held a replevin order.
Answernot legally,but they will try to make you believe they have the authority.they will have legal looking papers and talk the talk.they can sound very convincing.also they will have sound like they are doing you a favour by saying,we will hold it for you till you can make up the payments.DO NOT FALL FOR ANY OF THAT.THEY HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO ACTUALLY JUST TAKE THE VEHICLE WHEN YOUR NOT AROUND OR HAVE IT TOWED FROM YOUR PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT.ONCE THEY HAVE IT YOUR ONLY HOPE IS TO PAY IT OFF.TAKE IT FROM AN OLD PRO.
No, a juvenile cannot enter into such an agreement and the repossession agent could be held legally accountable for attempting/taking part in such action.
Depending on the state you reside in the procedure in order to get a repossession stopped is difficult. One of the few ways to stop a repossession is if a "breach of the peace" were to take place such as your car being in a locked garage or a threat of force was issued.
legally they are not aloud to break and enter into a building to get anything now if your garage is open and the repo man comes by and sees that he will try to take the item needed repo-ed and that is ok It is legal in some states for a repo man to enter an open, unlocked garage. In others it is a crime, and conducting a repossession in a case like this would be prosecutable as Larceny from a Building.
No, repo persons can not enter your residence without permission and an attached garage is your property.
Repossessors cannot enter a locked premise.
In Tennessee, a truck or car finance company can hire a repossession company to take your vehicle if you do not make payments and are in default. They are not able to break into a locked garage to take your vehicle and they cannot forcibly remove a person from behind the wheel of the car.
I own a repo company in Washington state, so I'm not a expert in Georgia laws, however in most cases states consider repossession or self-help repossession to be a civil matter. Most likely your local PD would not take action against you. This is provided there is not a court order, forcing you to turn over your vehicle.
he cannot break & enter to get the car.
Most courts have ruled that you CANT enter a closed dwelling. Carport yes, garage NO. Call a local attorney NOW with the facts and any witnesses you have. Good Luck
no
Only if the repossessor has an order for repossession of the trailer, as well. And even then, only under certain circumstances. If it's a commercial tractor trailer, and there's a load in that trailer, they may not take it, as the order of repossession does not cover the load, and they will face criminal charges if they do such.In the course of repossessing a vehicle, the repossession agency may not enter or move any vehicle (including a trailer) which is not in their order for repossession. They may detach a trailer from a truck being repossessed, but they can't actually take it.
They can only take whatever it is they have an order of repossession for - if the trailer is not included in their order of repossession, they cannot take it.
