In the recently decided case of Title Max v. Northington, the 11th Circuit unfortunately decided with the title pawn company. Because the title pawn lender filed a motion for relief and the debtor did not redeem the vehicle in time, the court found that the vehicle rightfully belonged to the title company. This ruling makes it clear that a bankruptcy attorney must be diligent in protecting their client’s ownership of a title pawned vehicle.
