Court Ordered Title Process Advancements

Court Ordered Title Process Progress
Over the past few years, our efforts in making the court ordered title process more conspicuous with government agencies have paid off. Many states are now having their DMV offices give this information out when the person arrives without proper paperwork. It used to be that if you went to the DMV and you didn’t have the right paperwork—you didn’t have the old title—the DMV would just say, “You’ve got to get out of here. There’s nothing we can do for you.” So, if you don’t have the old title certificate, you have to fix it on your own. Now, the DMVs are more familiar with the court order process.

Court Order in State Law
In fact, some states—like here’s an example from Washington—are starting to put this into their state law. So, this is their statute 30856A-320, transfer by court order. It tells you what information the DMV has to get. They have to get the full name of the person the property’s awarded to, meaning what name is on the new title. A description of the vehicle validation. The court order is filed and then the final judgment. So, this is very good progress. More and more states are starting to do this.

DMV Guidance and Court Order Power
It’ll give you the confidence that your DMV now will guide you in the right direction rather than just giving you the runaround and saying no, you can’t get a title. The court order is what solves all these problems. It’s when you can’t do a bonded title or you don’t want to do a bonded title. It’s a very powerful process. It kind of overrides the DMV, but more and more states and more and more DMV offices are starting to guide and direct their clients to the court order process.
