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. If a car loan lender can't repossess a vehicle, it will probably get possession of the car through a process called "replevin."When someone takes your property wrongly and refuses to give it back, you can file a replevin action. Filing a replevin means that you do not need to physically locate property to claim it. The process of starting a replevin action usually begins with filing a complaint. Some will allow individuals without attorneys to file suits seeking sequestration writs in their courts. Some even provide forms for creditors to fill out. The answer to your question is yes. The writ is a court order that allows a law enforcement officer to recover personal property from a person.
