everything everyone is saying makes sense in a way. just more then 90% of the advice we have gotten from cops, attorney etc...have said that the title can be easily awarded to my friend and that the car is his and cannot be released back to the previous because of the written agreement nor report it stolen because they actually initiated a "trade" which he has other proof of but we will just see what happens in a few weeks will keep you guys posted thanks for all your info!
