Replevin and Repossession Actions
In Tennessee, creditors have the right to recover property when a borrower defaults on a secured loan. The most common options available to creditors are replevin and repossession.
Replevin allows a creditor or owner to recover property that has been wrongfully taken or kept by another party. Lenders can use it to recover collateral when they default on a loan, but it can also be used if someone is keeping property without the owner’s consent or where there are disputes over property ownership. Replevin requires a court order and observes specific due process rights of a debtor.
Repossession is considered a more straightforward remedy, as it typically does not require a court order. However, there may be no breach of the peace—a creditor cannot break into enclosed property or obtain the property by force.
