Bailiffs may only take goods that belong to the debtor.[1]
If bailiffs take control of goods or a vehicle belonging to another, they can make a claim.[2][3]
The DVLA does not issue Title Documents for vehicles to register ownership, only the registered keeper.
Bailiffs enforcing traffic debts will pursue the registered keeper because the vehicle registration details are on the warrant of control. They target their vehicle until the owner proves their ownership.[2][3]
The procedure for the claim starts by giving the bailiff company and the bailiff a Notice to Claim of Controlled Goods
If the debt is being enforced in the High Court, the Notice is called a Notice to claim to Executed Goods
The owner of the goods may also claim damages for being deprived of his goods, or vehicle.[4][5]
