What to do about a car payment?
Question Details: The title is in her name with no lien on it. The car was financed under her ex-mother-in-law's name. Well she had a death in the family a couple years ago and paid off the car; we planned on making the payments to her until we fully paid her off. Do we have any legal obligation to continue to pay her? We have the title in my wife's name and there is not a lien on it.
Given the fact that legal title to the vehicle is in your wife's name and there is no lien on it then presumably the vehicle is your wife's to do as she pleases so long as no third party comes up with an unpaid promissory note demanding a pay off.
