What can the lender do to you after repossession?

If the repossessed property did not sell for enough to satisfy the debt the lender may decide to seek the rest of the payment through the courts. The courts may decide to require that you sell assets to satisfy the remainder of the debt. If you do not have assets to satisfy the debt the lender may be allowed to require, by court order, that your wages be attached to make payment. While all of these are possibilities courts do not always grant all of these options.
