Phoenix602, we need more information. Could you tell us how old is your husband and what were his health issues that caused him to have to have his mother and sister become his Power of Attorney? Or were there no health issues and he wanted his legal paper work in order?
What happened that you weren't able to be by your husband's side when all this was going down? Or did he decide to do this on his own? And why isn't he giving you the car for you to use?
If his mom or sister is acting as his power of attorney and he's given one of them permission to do do, it is exactly as if your husband were doing those things as far as your and his financial life is concerned. If the car is in his name and his POA won't let you have it, there's not much you can do. If it's in both of your names, you may be able to get it, but I have a feeling cops won't help.
Phoenix602, please go back and read the questions that were asked earlier, and if you could please answer them for us. The more information we get, the better we can help you.
Are you caregiving for your husband? If so, what are the medical issues? Why was the vehicle towed? Illegally parked? Impounded? Reprocessed?
You have the right to consult an attorney. POA only kicks in when the person is incapacitated, usually. Is he unable to insist that they return the car to you?
Ok I read this as he is in jail and the car was impounded by the police. His name is on the title and you are his wife. His family paid $1900 to get it out of the impound. Am I right? If so you have no rights to the car, sorry. Like too many wives, you are left high and dry. Sorry.

There's more to this story. How about sharing?
