I think I would formally sue & serve papers on the Sherrif to stop the sale of a car- not just call them. I don't see how they can sell a car with pending litigation. Time to get the Lawyer involved & stress to him the urgency - it can't wait until later.

When Richard offered it to me (before he offered it to Kevin) he said he had the title. I specifically asked if this was the black GT he had years ago in a different location and he said no.
Kevin W. would have had no idea nor I that it was not Richard's to sell.

The previously mentioned Black 89 GT is my car bought from Richard in 2017 I have a bill of sale and the title to the car.
I have reason to believe the car is in a forum members possession now based on post activity.
if you know you have my car, I emailed you about this as well, please reply to the email I sent. I will be discussing this with the sheriff tomorrow. We had planned to file a theft report to add to the existing ones filed from other customers. I guess mine will be added now to the other 3.

I will let Black928GT provide any further details as it relates to him and the car.

You are most certainly too late. This is going straight to bankruptcy and you are an unsecured creditor. Still, get the advice from your lawyer. Just don't invest too much in legal fees, because you'll get nothing back, or at most (unlikely) pennies on the dollar.

What do the insurance companies have to say about the situation? Has anyone received a payout for their stolen vehicle?
Will all of these cars have "Branded titles"?
This story has more wrinkles than a bucket of Botox can smooth out and I hope all of the victims can be made whole when the dust settles...

I believe the argument will be that the car is not part of the bankruptcy estate. That is, Juan Doe did not transfer title to the car and that Juan still owns it. There are several possible defenses to such an argument. Some of them are factual and others are procedural. From what little we know, the argument cannot be simply dismissed as without merit. For example, if I were to take my car to a garage for work to be done on it, that simple act wouldn't transfer the title to the garage. If the garage goes into receivership while the garage still has it, that doesn't defeat my title to the car. However, let's say extensive work had been done on the car and a mechanic's lien is in place, that might defeat my title. Even then, I should have the right to contest the validity of the lien or to satisfy its requirements such that the car is returned to me. My point: Some of the 'owners' of these cars may not be unsecured creditors.

From Forsyth County Sheriff office,
The whole thing is over a monthly lease payment that turned into $8,000 plus with lawyer fees and associated cost. The cars were the only thing of value to levy by Sheriff Department. 17 cars were levied 7 cars returned to owners from Sheriff contacting them. 10 cars slated for Auction. That number is now at 8 cars slated for auction.
The statement was that
Any owner that has a grieviance with Garage 928 should contact Sheriff's office directly. Currently there are no class action cases against the garage of it's owner.

One take away... if you can’t get your car back from a licensed shop start the legal proceedings promptly. I know in FL the majority of applicable law goes against the shops and favor the consumer. Hindsight is always clear but I wonder how so many people put up with being denied access to their cars for so long. I wish all of the victims luck and success in their recovery.
