If you default on your car loan payments, the lender can take your car back through repossession or replevin. Learn the difference.Many states allow repossessors to enter private property to complete a repossession, so long as the taking is without breaching the peace. While repossession does not involve a formal process in court, replevin consists of getting the court to order the consumer to return the vehicle to the lender. A writ of replevin is a prejudgment process ordering the seizure or attachment of alleged illegally taken or wrongfully withheld property. Before you would make any payments, you would want to make sure that the plaintiff agrees to withdraw the complaint and files papers in court to withdraw it. Customer: This is my order for replevin. Can someone please show me the writ of replevin documentation I CAN fill out. The applicant should sign the copy in front of a notary and have the signed paper notarized. So, before handing over any money, you want to get the plaintiff to agree in writing to withdraw the action.
