You may have to sue for Breach of Contract in General Sessions. Hopefully you have sufficient service information. I doubt the LEO's will arrest for Theft.

If the property is significant, file an Action to Recover Personal Property in Sessions. As to debt, it is up to him to sue you. I doubt FDCA applies here enough to file suit.

Your contract would control whether you can fire him. If his lack of performance has materially breached your agreement, then you may have options. Consult counsel to determine your options.
I make 1635 a month for 2 people and I have 4 loans that total 700 per month and my home and utilities are 600. Im not behind yet but i just can't keep up. I know it would damage my credit but can I alternate payments every other month or would bankruptcy be my best option?

Did the creditor win a judgement against anyone with that name at my address or against specifically the person who made the contract. Can I be considered liable for the debt? Do I need to countersue this creditor for the mistake?

You must hire an attorney. Setting aside such a Judgment will be difficult and will require some very precise pleadings. You will have to go to Court and prove you are not the proper Judgment Debtor. Time is running against you.

Landlord/Owner has a right to go on leasehold. It is probably in your Lease with a notice provision, which is why they told you. Trying to prevent the landlord's lawful entry will be a breach of contract and grounds for a Detainer Warrant. I would take pictures of everything before I left.

Call a competent attorney in your area today. There are many pertinent facts needed, and you do not understand what is going on. Even if a property damage tort only in your case, you can mess it up quickly. Citations in Court can destroy you also. Comparative Negligence may apply.
The dealership or the bank financing it? And do they have to tell u who is financing it?

Generally the lender puts a lien on the title. It will be typed in as a lienholder on the Certificate of Title. That is their security pursuant to a financing contract to repossess the vehicle. Tthe dealer probably already got paid by the bank or given credit on its financing agreement.

Yes. You can file a claim in Tennessee's version of small claims court- called General Sessions Court. You would feel out a pleading called a Warrant. You can also report the contractor to the state licensing board.
