QUESTION
Can a business have your car towed during business hours?
Asked on Oct 14th, 2016 on Personal Injury - Michigan
More details to this question:
The car lot is part of two businesses but my car was partially sticking out of the space of one, which was in the open area of the lot. One business called the police to have it towed. It happened at night after hours and it was towed before I could get it the next day later that afternoon.

You would be considered trespassing on the other lot. I would think that the business was well within its rights to have the car towed.

You would have to sue the tow yard in small claims court and they will contest the issue. Better park better next time.
