My ex-boyfriend wants the stuff we bought together??

Carlos de La Vega

Good for you, this ex of yours sounds like a complete loser. He can take you to a small claims lawsuit, but it depends on how long you have been together. You can also do the same to him though.

If you purchased it together there is nothing the police can do. He can however, take you to small claims court and sue you for payment for half of what you purchased.

Because it's property purchased together...he would need to file in court to take the property from you.

I doubt he wants to go to that length!

You don't mention how long you were together or what state...but in my own state it's referred to as "community property."

If you have further questions...feel free to email directly!

ur bf is acting like an immature, whiny little BRAT. Tell him to go pound salt, ya cry baby!!! Like the others said...he's not getting anything from you unless he takes you to court and even if he did (which I doubt)...he better have all the receipts.

next time, try to find a bf that will be more of a man and less of a baby boy.....good luck!

You keep the gifts he gave you. He keeps the gifts you bought him. Anything that you bought "together" (whatever you mean by that) needs to divided equally.

brandedapa

If he calls the police, i doubt if they would do anything but suggest you both take your complaint to small claims court. Most likely, depending on how long you have been together, the items you both brought together will be divided in half and/or if you or he decides to keep a particular item(s) the other will have to monetarily compensate the other for the value.
Good luck!

Seems to me he's entitled to HALF the stuff you bought together.

When he gave you gifts, they became YOUR property (which is why you packed the things you gave him).

But the mutually-bought stuff was mutually bought, and so is the property of both.

You should probably find some way to split the DVDs with him, since he is legally entitled to half -- however, he'd have to go to small claims court to enforce this. As for the gifts he bought for you, he's out of luck. A gift is the recipient's property.

He can call the cops, but all they're going to do is try to get the two of you to come to agreement, or if that fails, refer you to small claims court. They can't force you to hand anything over.

new friend

giv at once n b happy.

Adonai

The items you both purchased Together belong to both of you, split them up.

Keep your gifts and let him call the cops.

AdorUCutie

What a loser! Give it to him, and I'll get you a new one. lol

Callumaniac

Tell him he can have his stuff, if he shoves them up his a**

ranzel

pay him half the amount of his share for the dvd. the gifts, keep it! there is nothing he can do about it even if he calls a cop.

Kevy

Any gifts given while in a relationship DO NOT have to be returned, unless it is an engagement ring, Which constitutes a legal contract, and if the contract is void, so is the issuance of the ring. Whoever bought the DVDs is who owns them, if they were bought with money from both of you, split them.

PS if you had not given him the Christmas presents you bought him yet, they are still legally yours.
The police will not do anything as this is a civil issue and not criminal.

On a personal note, tell the ****** to grow up.

Young Parent

So much for a merry christmas aye. Dont give him anything if hes going to call the cops let him do it, they cant really do anything about it lol. Ild say hes just pissed that you called it off.
Hope you have a good xmas though

dust s

he is an idiot and well at last you know you have brains

aussiegirl_aka_shygirl

Yes, he can call the cops however, they're not going to do anything about it.

They'll probably just suggest you both come up with a compromise and that's about it.

Like someone else said, there's always the small claims court, but would he go that far for a few DVD's? Pfft!

He's a tosser, I hope you're glad to be rid of him!

Brad

Tell him the hell with him

mimi

don't let him scare you. the police can't do anything. all he could do is take you to court and do you think he really will? just remember...posession is 9/10's of the law!!

manju n

he will not call the crops dont worry.. but give him the thyingsk dr

BC21

LET HIM CALL THE POLICE. HE GAVE IT AS A GIFT, AND HE CANT TAKE IT BACK. THE ONLY WAY HE CAN GET IT BACK IS IF U GIVE IT BACK TO HIM. BUT IF HE DOSE CALL THE POLICE JUST SAY THAT THE STUFF IS YOURS, THERE'S NO WAY THAT YOUR EX CAN PROVE IT. SINCE THE STUFF IS IN YOUR HOUSE, IT STAYS IN YOUR HOUSE.

ebmid2

I think you can keep the gifts he gave you. As for the stuff you bought together, what do you mean you bought it together? Did you each pay for half? If so, it seems like you should keep half of that stuff, and he should get the other half. Or you could keep it all, and give him half the cash value of it. Or you could give it all to him, and have him give you half the cash value of it. If you can't work it out on your own, then you'll have to go to court and have a judge divide up the property.

Or do you mean that he paid for everything, but you were with him when he bought it? If that's the case, then he should get everything.

Kruger, Freddy Kruger

well this shows what kind of person he is and that oit was probably a good thing that you broke up with him
he could call the police, but i doubt they would do anything, the only fair thing to do is to split the dvds, he has half of them and you have half of them, as for the presents, why would he want a girls presents? seems pretty petty, but if he want them, let him keep them, dont start a pointless argument.
good luck

Princess

NO HE CANT IF YOU BOUGHT THEM TOGETHER THE MOST THEY CAN TELL YOU TO DO IS SPILT THEM BETWEEN YOU 2

Farv33

Definitely Not!! Maybe split what you bought together 50/50 but there is no reason you have to give him back the gifts he bought you. They are your possessions and you can do what you want with them. My vote is to keep them!

cheechalini

As long as you posess the stuff, and i hope have receipts, he has very little legal grounds. He is trying to be an ***. If i were you, i would burn the dvds. But thats me...

BILL

look you don't legally have to give him anything but since you already gave him the gifts you bought him just keep the ones he bought you they are yours.
As far as the stuff you bought together they are in your house so they are yours , if you want to split them with him then do that but the cops wont go anything.

If you would like to talk email or IM me , I'm a pretty good listener.

Bye
