we've had my uncle's truck sitting in our driveway for about a year and we told them * weeks ago that we no longer wanted it (they claimed they were waiting on permission from owner's estate to sell/give it to us). would i be within my rights to request they remove the truck from our driveway by the end of next month then have it impounded if it isn't gone?
