[RC] Registration - Court Order - k s swigartKari Hanes said: We bought a mare at an auction without papers a few years ago. ... "The court order must be issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. Examples of orders may be a Declaratory Judgment, Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, or simply an Order Awarding Title. The order must clearly state that you have legal title to the horse." If you have a bill of sale from the auction house then the auction house should have something to show that they were authorized by the owner to sell the horse on his behalf. This should be sufficient to prove legal title to the horse (you gave the auction house money, and the auction house gave the owner money--less commission). If the auction house sold the horse for somebody other than the registered owner, then you will have to trace the transactions back through those people...as you may NOT have clear title to the horse. Or you can do the "advertise for other owners" thing and wait and see if nobody responds, but I would get an attorney to do this for me as the attorney would know the details of exactly what is necessary to make this legally binding the first time you show up at court looking for paperwork. kat Orange County, Calif. :) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
