The purchaser at the sheriff’s or constable’s sale may obtain certificate of title upon presentation of all the following items:
• Certified copy of the judgment and writ of execution, or the court order of sale.
• Bill of sale from the sheriff, constable or other duly authorized executing officer showing the date of sale, name of
purchaser, make and VIN of vehicle.
• Documentation that any existing lien is satisfied.
OPTION 2 - NON-JUDICIAL SALE OR REPOSSESSION & RETENTION (Uniform Commercial Code)
Certificate of title will be issued in the name of the purchaser at the sale (who may be the lienholder) upon receipt of the
following:
• The certificate of title when a lien is recorded on the title OR the original or an acceptable copy of the filed financing
statement.
• The original or an acceptable copy of the agreement which is the basis of the right to repossess.
• The original or an acceptable copy of the notice of intention to sell, mailed to the debtor.
(i)
If a public sale, the notice must set forth the time and place of the sale.
(ii)
If a private sale, the notice must set forth the time after which the sale is to be made.
• Bill of sale showing the date of sale, name of purchaser, make and VIN of vehicle, if the purchaser is not the lienholder.
OPTION 3 - COURT ORDER - This option is used by a lienholder, who is not recorded on the Certificate of Title or
who is not licensed by the Department of Banking, when the lienholder wishes to obtain ownership of the vehicle.
NOTE: A sample court order is printed on the back.
Certificate of title will be issued upon receipt of the following items:
• A certified copy of an order of a Court of Common Pleas listing the make and VIN of the vehicle and naming the
person to whom the court awarded ownership of the vehicle and proof that notice of the Court of Common Pleas
proceeding was given to the prior owner and any other person who had an interest in the vehicle.
• If the original certificate of title is available, it must be attached to your application and court order. If the title is not
available, documentation must be included explaining why the title is not attached.

indemnification agreement, or other forms as necessary.
