If vehicle is in repossession phase and you are pulled over will you go to jail for auto theft?

No. Not if the circumstances are as simple as stated. Repossession is a civil law procedure, not involving criminal law -UNLESS- the vehicle HAD already been re-possessed and you went and took it back from the repossession impound lot, or the repossession agent or the bank. If it had already been taken and impounded then, yes, you could be charged with auto theft.

Can a repo take place at your work in Florida?

Can they issue a warrant on you if they cant find the vehicle?

Yes. Your question does not make any sense, but yes. A warrant for your arrest can be signed at any time with sufficient cause. A better question is why do you think your getting a warrant and how is it related to this vehicle. You filed under repossession, and to my knowledge you cannot get a warrant for hiding something from being repo'd. They are separate schools of law, the repossession being under a breach of contract between you and the loaning institution (contract law I think its called), and a warrant would be regarding criminal law.

Repossession laws for recreational vehicle in ny?

In the state of New York, provided there is a legal order for repossession, once the vehicle is located, it may be secured and recovered. The repossession agency has 24 hours to notify the registered owner of the repossession, but they are only required to do so by mail, and may do so to the address of record on the registration. They do not have to notify anyone at the time of repossession other than local law enforcement of jurisdiction. They must inventory and secure any property contained in the vehicle, and may charge a storage fee for that property.


Can you be arrested for repossession of a car?

Repossession of a carDo you mean, "can you be arrested for not allowing repossession of a car?" If so, then yes, you can.If you meant 'can you be arrested for repossessing a car?" you can't as long as you have a permit/license to do so and conduct yourself in a lawful manner duriong the actual repossession.Added; In potentially violent situations, repossessors will sometimes call law enforcement and ask them to 'stand by' while they take the vehicle, but only to prevent a breach of the peace. Law enforcment will play no part in assisting in the actual repossession of the vehicle, inasmuch as repossession is done under a civil court order, and is not a criminal matter

It becomes a criminal offence when you assault or batter (depends on state) the repossession agent. In order for something to be a criminal offence, there must be a law against doing that thing. Having your vehicle out for repossession is civil, not criminal.
