Overhaulin'

I sold my car to junk yard 6 months ago & sec of state still wants me to pay for license renewal?

My birthday is coming up and the secretary of state sent me a letter and they want me to pay for a car I don't even own. No, I didn't keep a copy of the bill of sale but I still do have a copy of the title that was signed over to the owner of the junkyard. What do I do?

1. Wow! That's just weird! Actually it's ridiculous. Whatever! Why pay for something that's not yours? Don't do it. Show them the title-end of story. What state is this?
2. I don't know what state you live in, but most would be the same. All you need to do is deliver the copy of the title to the DMV or whatever it is called in your state (in person might be best in this case) with the section filled out that declares the automobile to be scrapped and no longer on the road. Perhaps you can contact the junkyard to see if they can help with your little problem. You can make this go away quite easily.
