Question
I broke up with my girlfriend. And we went and got a new car for her about two years ago. and put it in my name because her credt was bad. she made the payments. But she said because she was not on the papper work. That she is not legaly responsible for the pay off that we will be short on.But I am thinking because we traded her old car in that she was upside down on that car. that they carried over the balance of that old car to the new car price. will she have to come up with the rest of the balane. That I will be short from the trade in

Answer
Thanks. I hate to say it but you have to go with what's on the paper. If it's just your name on the paperwork, you owe the dealer. You can try to sue her in small claims court to get reimbursed but the judge will be grilling you hard on the paperwork issue.
I know that it may seem to be unfair or unjust but when it comes to property and money, the paper is what counts.
Good luck and best wishes! I hope that you find this information to be helpful and this answer to be ACCEPTable!

What if I go to the deler and have them give me the papper work that she was upside down by 5k on her old car. Then they added that upside down BALANCE to the new car price. And then take her to small claims court
Answer
Yes. You can use that to prove unjust enrichment.
