I have a bedroom suit that I'm still paying for that I got before I even met this person. We started a relationship and moved in together. Now we're no longer together and she won't allow me to come get my property.

This is conversion. You can either sue for the property or call the police. The police may help facilitate re-possessing your property.

Write her a LETTER and mail it keep a copy Ask for your property back or that you will consider it stolen or converted if she will not give it back.. file a police report if possible (some police depts. will not take a police report because they consider it a civil matter) If the cops will not agree file a lawsuit against her for 3x the value see generally mcl 600.2919a recovery of damages for conversion of property.

First you need to send a demand letter for the return of the property or payment of what the property is worth. If no satisfactory reply is received, then file a small claims action. You should consult an attorney about the letter and a small claims advisor about the action.

You will most likely have to file a lawsuit for conversion in order to get your property back or the value of your property.

I suggest that you send her a letter, certified mail return receipt requested, demanding that she allow you to retrieve the property within a certain period of time or you will sue her. You will want to check your local small claims court rules for the amount of time to give her. Then, if she does not comply you can sue her for conversion and ask for a court order.
