What can be done if my ex-boyfriend bought furniture with my credit and is not making the payments?

Answered by attorney Andrew Tyler Velonis (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Andrew T. Velonis, P.C.
You will be held responsible for paying this money. As far as the finance company is concerned, they loaned the money to you and any deal you made with anyone else is your problem. I know that sounds harsh, but that's the way they look at it. You can sue the ex-BF, but then you have to collect. Tell the finance company to go ahead and repo the furniture. They will, and then will sell it for cheap and sue you for the difference. When they do, bring a third-party action against the ex-BF.

What do I do to stop my creditor from allowing me to continue to make payments, then once it's almost paid off, repossess it?

If you're current on the payments, there is no reason to repo the car. The bank doesn't get the full value of the car, just enough to repay them. The rest goes back to you. Also, there is a question whether the contract gives them a right to repo if you're current.

If I file for bankruptcy, will that protect me from further activity from the collection agency?

They can't renew the judgment if you file bankruptcy. That would be considered harassment and they could be found in contempt by the bankruptcy court.
