I won a motorcycle in a drawing but nobody has the title?

[Anonymous]

I won a motorcycle from a drawing at a casino, but the title is nowhere to be found. The casino says they don't have it, and the DMV doesn't have it. Where do I even begin? Do I need a lawyer or police to bitch slap someone that's hiding it from me? lol. I feel like the title can't be nowhere. It has to be somewhere. Anyone ever ran into this problem before?

Congrats on winning a motorcycle! 🏍️ That's super exciting! But I totally get how frustrating it is to be stuck without the title. If the casino can't locate it and the DMV is also at a loss, you're definitely in a bit of a pickle.

First off, don't worry too much about getting a lawyer or involving the police just yet. Start by getting as much documentation as you can from the casino about the win. This includes any letters, certificates, or emails confirming that you won the motorcycle. 📝

Then, visit the DMV in person and explain the situation with all your documentation in tow. They might have a process for situations like yours, often called a bonded title or a surety bond title, where you can legally establish ownership of the vehicle even if the original title can’t be found.

Persistence is key! Keep communication open with the casino. Since they hosted the drawing, they should be willing to help you sort this out. Maybe they have some administrative oversight they can correct once you push a little harder. You’d be surprised how much a polite but firm request for assistance can achieve.

Good luck, and hopefully you'll be out riding soon! 🌟
