In Tennessee, if you had permission from the owner to use the car, it's generally not considered theft. However, if the owner now claims it was stolen, it could lead to legal issues. It might be helpful to gather any evidence of permission, like messages or witnesses. Do you have any such evidence?
No
In Tennessee, if the car owner claims you stole the car despite initially giving permission, it could lead to legal complications. Without evidence, it might be challenging to prove your case.
