OK my parents bought me a car it was 3800 I was paying them monthly I lost my job and haven't been able to pay them I currently owe them 1745... they took me to court and sued me but I don't know how this is possible there was no signature only verbal agreement. But they didn't turn in the judgement yet they gave me another chance to pay they wanted to scare me. Well I still couldn't make payments so they have turned in the judgement and they have called to tell me that the car will be taken and sold at auction.. is it possible for them to take the car if the title is in my name and my name only??

I really do not like my parents, they are wealthy people and they sued there own son who is trying to make it on his own...

In small claims cases, a verbal agreement is binding (I know it's a lot of money to you).

If a larger amount of money were involved, the judge would expect there to be a written contract - people don't usually rely on verbal agreement when large sums are involved.

You should ask your parents to give you a couple of weeks to sell the car yourself - the car is not likely to sell for a good price at auction and you will still have to pay the remaining balance if there is any (though I expect it would get the 1745 you owe).

Your parents do not owe you anything, regardless of how much money they have, as an adult you have to pay your own way in everything.

A verbal contract is very binding, and of course they can sue you. They are teaching you a lesson and it appears you are to spoiled to learn it and understand that they are doing something good.
They had proff that they paid for the car ( reciepts) and proof you were making payments ( your payments to them) so it is all very legal and binding

1. They helped you buy a car, most parents don't and would make you work and buy your own car.

2. They did not take the car when they could have. They have a judgement, they can take your car ( repo it) anytime you want since they have the judgement.

And you are being shown what will happen in the real world, except they did not take the car, they merely showed you they could.

So tell them you are sorry, ask them if you can do work for them to help make payment toward it, and perhaps use this to learn a lesson, and of course this type of response does not show you are really grown and ready to be on your own.

As noted, your parents were within their legal rights to do what they did. They obtained a judgement by showing proof they paid for the car and that you have not kept up payments. Once the judgement was obtained they can seize the car.

But I think some things are being left out here.

Parents who would loan their kid the money to buy a car, would probably be understanding if you lost your job. So I wonder why they haven't cut you some slack here. I suspect its a) because of why you lost your job and b) because you have remained without a job.

"Making it on your own" includes paying debts, I'm afraid.

A verbal contract is binding, ALMOST always.

Except in specifics cases like the sale of land, etc.

Your parents are real jerks to do what they are doing, but unfortunately they are legally allowed to.
