[G50]

Pretty sure I know the answer to this, but maybe I’m wrong.

Looking to buy a used car.

Seller bought it a month or two ago. He never registered it in his name. He bought it from a guy in GA and took it to AZ.

He has the GA title signed by the seller, but otherwise left blank.

I’m in California.

Not ideal, but I think that wouldn’t be a problem if I bought and registered in California.

The problem is I ran a Carfax and the signed GA title that he’s holding was issued 7 years ago. Since then, Carfax shows that GA issued a “duplicate title” a year ago.

I’m going to assume that invalidates the earlier title. And when I go to register it in California, that is going to cause a problem. Yes?
