Tropicalevo Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 21 hours ago, Steven55 said: Still, my question is: is a court procedure required to put the car on her name (once she got it back from the thieves). If yes, how much will this cost (including a rough estimation of lawyer expenses - difficult to answer, I realize). I believe that you have to go to court. When my wife died (no will) I had to go to court to obtain legal access to her car. I had to get her parents AND siblings to sign a letter that they had no interest in the car. The court awarded the car to me. I then took the court order, death certificate and car book to the Land transport office and had the car changed into my name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year my missus renews my car rego for me, she just takes the blue book and in she goes, it's in my name, but nobody ever asks anything, she renews it and pays the money, end of story. So in this case GF just keeps the car, it's not in her name but so what? She'll probably have a bit of trouble if she tried to sell it but as long as she just wants to use the car for her own purposes then no problems, just keep the car and run it into the ground. When it's knackered, flog it off for parts. "That's your best answer". That's your best answer? She doesn't have the car, doesn't have the blue book and doesn't know where the car is.

Elkski Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 So Stevens new GF, I hope, was promised the car, but the nurse took it as soon as she heard of her patients demise? Seems like a police report of a stolen car needs to happen. But the owner is dead and wouldn't have the bluebook either. What about bank cards? Is this GF going to assume the rental lease obligations if any? Need to know what model car this is and it's approximate value to know if this would make a proper movie or not. How old was this guy? Was his illness terminal so he knew he wasn't making it back to Thailand 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was his illness terminal so he knew he wasn't making it back to Thailand "So Stevens new GF, I hope, was promised the car...". Steven55 is the OP, not the owner of the car, neither is the woman his girlfriend. A Line message to that girl does not give her ownership of the car. "...the nurse took it as soon as she heard of her patients demise? Seems like a police report of a stolen car needs to happen". How can anyone who is not the owner of a car make a police report about that car being stolen? Perhaps the owner sent a similar "ownership" Line message to the nurse? "What about bank cards?" What about them? This is about his car. "How old was this guy? Was his illness terminal so he knew he wasn't making it back to Thailand". What's the relevance of any of that to the car? "Need to know what model car this is and it's approximate value to know if this would make a proper movie or not". Why are you posting about a movie and how does the make/model/value of the car affect its ownership?

andygrr Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 My question is how did the nurse get her hands on the car and blue book in the first place. How old is the car and value, was the nurse paid in full or owed wages. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussienam Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) This country never ceases to amaze me with people trying to fleece and swindle each other. So even the nurse wants to benefit! Hiding the car? Wow. Greed off the Richter scale if true. Unless she was doing it out of some sense of moral duty to ensure the GF is legitimately entitled to the car (we all know the millions of stories of scamming, swindling girlfriends). Or was the nurse involved with the deceased? If a nurse is trying to snatch property away from someone else, what else may she be capable of doing? Is it a legal loophole? Where were the car keys and how did the nurse get them and other ownership documentation? Blatantly taking a car like that is not exactly hiding the fact she took it. And being a nurse, she's likely of decent intelligence, so she surely would have thought this through? But then again TIT. Loads of questions. All just speculation.

I know you will need a photocopy of the guys passport page where the immi exit stamp of Thailand is. Most likely will need a copy of the death certificate too.

Anything you can get in order will help. I have recent complications - - and though I have a legal will and executor in USA, life does not proceed in a normal manner. There have been developments here that I would not have imagined... That's life and I am not sure who I might trust legally here. Life would be much easier if we could plan our expiration date... I mean, you would not have thought a guy like me who takes a practical approach to investing would buy into crypto - though not the actual fantasy of coin, just the ETF... which seemed like a bargain... I expect it will be a short term investment.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
