    Default Titling Vehicle After Debt Discharged

    I have a car that we stopped making payments on 2 years ago. Bank never repoed, as it has no real value. I just got a bankruptcy discharge so i no longer owe any money on it. I would like to clear the title so I can register it. Can I just go ahead and treat it as abandoned property and follow Georgia rules for abandoned property?

    I am also considering contacting the finance company and offering them $200 as settlement for clear title

    What "rules for abandoned property" are you talking about?

    If the lender will release their lien in return for a small payment, that would be one way to get the lien released.

    Georgia has an abandoned vehicle procedure. If a vehicle is left on your property for 30+ days, you contact the lienholder via certified mail, notify them the vehicle is on your property and request it be removed. If not removed after 30 days, you can apply for the title. I may not be exactly right on the procedures but thats more or less how it works.
