My car is in my mother-in-laws name, my mother in law past away last Thanksgiving. There is a bank loan on this car, I have been making the payments. Keep in mind, the car n the loan is in my ex mother in laws name n she is dead. Here's the thing. I also have a clear title to this car. My ex husband want to trade this car off for me, since it needs all kinds of major work, and I can't afford a down payment on another vehicle. My question is can he get into trouble if he gets rid of the car? once again THERE IS A BANK LOAN ON THIS CAR, BUT THEY MADE A MISTAKE AT THE LICENSE BRANCH N GAVE US A CLEAR TITLE TO THE CAR. The loan she has on the car don't have the insurance for death.

The last will that we recieved a copy of was made about 5 yrs ago leaving everything to my ex- husband
 
If the car is in the mother-in-law's name, you and your husband cannot do anything with it.
If the mother-in-law did not have a will, an estate will have to be set up so an executor can be named to dispose of the vehicle.
That may cost you as much as $600 to get named executor. If the car is not worth much, you may want to consider just parking it and let the bank take it.
