TD Bank, N.A. v. Yolanda Corley

Filed: Feb 14, 2023
Type: CJ

What's This Case About?

Let’s be real: nobody wakes up dreaming of becoming the defendant in a $14,000 car loan lawsuit. But here we are, with Yolanda Corley, Oklahoma City resident and proud (former?) owner of a 2017 Hyundai Tucson, now starring in her very own debt drama, courtesy of TD Bank, N.A. The bank wants its money. Yolanda hasn’t paid. And somewhere, probably in a cubicle stacked with identical files, a paralegal at Love, Beal & Nixon, P.C. is sipping lukewarm coffee while typing “Default on retail installment sale contract” into a spreadsheet for the 47th time this week. Welcome to the glamorous world of civil court, where the stakes are real, the drama is low-key, and the cars are always used.

So who is Yolanda Corley? We don’t know much—no social media deep dive, no mugshot, no viral TikTok explaining her side. Just a name on a contract, a signature on a 17-page retail installment agreement, and an address in Oklahoma City. She bought a car. A perfectly fine car, we should say—a 2017 Hyundai Tucson with 65,998 miles on it, which, for the uninitiated, is like the automotive equivalent of “lightly used but still has that weird air freshener smell.” She didn’t buy it with cash. She didn’t trade in anything of value—her 2018 Dodge Journey was apparently underwater, with a payoff that matched its trade-in value exactly, leaving her with a net trade-in of $0. So she financed it. Through Boomer Kia, a dealership with a name that sounds like a frat party from 1987, but hey, they sell cars. And they sold one to Yolanda.

The total price? $33,790.32. That includes a financed amount of $27,299.50, a finance charge of $6,490.82 (because interest is how banks stay in business, and also how they afford those snazzy law firms), and a monthly payment of $469.31 for 72 months—six long years of “I can’t believe I’m still paying for this SUV.” Payments were supposed to start March 20, 2022. That’s two years ago. Which means, if all had gone according to plan, Yolanda would be about a third of the way through her car payments, maybe starting to forget she ever signed a contract longer than her last text thread.

But something went wrong. The filing doesn’t say what—no sob story, no missed job, no medical emergency, no “my dog ate the checkbook.” Just a cold, hard fact: she defaulted. Payments stopped. The account, with number ending in 0202 (which sounds like a robot’s social security number), went dark. And now, after “all due credits were applied,” TD Bank says she still owes $14,218.48. That’s not the full balance—she’s paid something, presumably—but it’s enough to make a bank lawyer in Oklahoma City pick up the phone and say, “Alright, time to sue.”

Now, let’s talk about TD Bank, N.A., the plaintiff in this thrilling saga. They didn’t actually sell Yolanda the car. They weren’t there when she test-drove the Tucson, or when she negotiated the deal, or when she signed her name six times on page five of the contract (because apparently one signature just isn’t enough when you’re committing to six years of payments). No, TD Bank came in after the fact—Boomer Kia assigned the contract to them “without recourse,” which is legal speak for “we’re handing you the debt, but if she doesn’t pay, it’s on you, not us.” So TD Bank is now the lienholder, the entity with a security interest in the car, and the one sending the bills. And when those bills go unpaid? They don’t send a passive-aggressive email. They send William L. Nixon, Jr., Esq., and a petition to the District Court of Oklahoma County.

The legal claim here is as straightforward as a highway at night: “petition for indebtedness.” In human terms, that means “you borrowed money, you didn’t pay it back, we want it now.” The contract is clear, the numbers are itemized, and the bank is asking for judgment in the amount of $14,218.48, plus interest from the date of judgment, court costs, and a “reasonable attorney’s fee.” They’re not asking for punitive damages. They’re not demanding her soul. They just want their money. And honestly? From a purely financial standpoint, they’re probably in the right. She signed the contract. It’s all there in black and white, including the part where she acknowledged she read every page—including the arbitration provision—and got a filled-in copy when she signed. No “I didn’t know” excuses here.

But here’s the twist—the arbitration provision. Buried in the fine print, like a landmine in a minivan manual, is a clause that says any dispute must be settled by binding arbitration, not in court. Which raises a fun legal eyebrow: why is this in court at all? Shouldn’t TD Bank have to go to arbitration first? Maybe. But here’s the thing: arbitration clauses are powerful, but they’re not magic. And banks often skip straight to court when they think they’ve got a slam dunk case—especially when the defendant hasn’t shown up yet. This might all be procedural posturing. Or maybe Yolanda never invoked the arbitration clause. We don’t know. But it’s a spicy little detail in an otherwise vanilla debt collection case.

Now, let’s talk about that $14,218.48. Is it a lot? Is it a little? Well, it’s about three-quarters of the original financed amount, which means she didn’t pay for very long. At $469 a month, she might’ve only made 30 payments—two and a half years—before falling behind. Or maybe she missed several in a row. Either way, that’s a chunk of change. For most people, $14k is a year’s rent, a used car down payment, or a solid chunk of a wedding budget. It’s not “I forgot my wallet at brunch” money. And yet, here we are, fighting over it in civil court, because someone missed a few car payments.

So what do we think? Honestly, the most absurd part isn’t the amount, or the arbitration clause, or even the fact that a bank is suing over a used Hyundai. It’s the sheer banality of it all. This isn’t a scam. It’s not fraud. It’s not even a dramatic repossession chase. It’s just life: someone bought a car they probably couldn’t afford, life happened, payments stopped, and now the machine grinds forward. TD Bank didn’t create the system. Yolanda didn’t invent buyer’s remorse. But somewhere in the gap between “I need a car to get to work” and “I can’t afford this payment anymore,” the whole thing fell apart.

We’re not rooting for the bank. We’re not rooting for the defendant. We’re rooting for a world where buying a car doesn’t require signing a 17-page contract that reads like a dystopian novel, where “optional gap contracts” and “vendor’s single interest insurance” don’t bury people in debt before they even drive off the lot. But until that world arrives, we’ll be here, in Oklahoma County District Court, watching the next chapter of Car Loan: The Lawsuit. Tune in next time, when the defendant might actually show up—or, more likely, when the judge grants a default judgment and we move on to the next case. The machine never stops.

WITHOUT SUCH INSURANCE YOU MAY NOT OPERATE THIS VEHICLE ON PUBLIC HIGHWAYS. OTHER IMPORTANT AGREEMENTS 1. FINANCE CHARGE AND PAYMENTS a. How we will figure Finance Charge. We will figure the Finance Charge on a daily basis at the Annual Percentage Rate on the unpaid part of the Amount Financed. b. How we will apply payments. We may apply each payment to the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge, to the unpaid part of the Amount Financed and to other amounts you owe under this contract in any order we choose as the law allows. c. How late payments or early payments change what you must pay. We based the Finance Charge, Total of Payments, and Total Sale Price shown on page 1 of this contract on the assumption that you will make every payment on the day it is due. Your Finance Charge, Total of Payments, and Total Sale Price will be more if you pay late and less if you pay early. Changes may take the form of a larger or smaller final payment or, at our option, more or fewer payments of the same amount as your scheduled payment with a smaller final payment. We will send you a notice telling you about these changes before the final scheduled payment is due. d. You may prepay. You may prepay all or part of the unpaid part of the Amount Financed at any time without penalty. If you do so, you must pay the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge and all other amounts due up to the date of your payment. e. Your right to refinance a balloon payment. A balloon payment is a scheduled payment that is more than twice as large as the average of your earlier scheduled payments. If you are buying the vehicle primarily for personal, family or household use, you have the right to refinance the balloon payment when due without penalty. The terms of the refinancing will be no less favorable to you than the terms of this contract. This provision does not apply if we adjusted your payment schedule to your seasonal or irregular income. 2. YOUR OTHER PROMISES TO US a. If the vehicle is damaged, destroyed, or missing. You agree to pay us all you owe under this contract even if the vehicle is damaged, destroyed, or missing. b. Using the vehicle. You agree not to remove the vehicle from the U.S. or Canada, or to sell, rent, lease, or transfer any interest in the vehicle or this contract without our written permission. You agree not to expose the vehicle to misuse, seizure, confiscation, or involuntary transfer. If we pay any repair bills, storage bills, taxes, fines, or charges on the vehicle, you agree to repay the amount when we ask for it. c. Security Interest. You give us a security interest in: • The vehicle and all parts or goods put on it; • All money or goods received (proceeds) for the vehicle; • All insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts we finance for you; and • All proceeds from insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts we finance for you. This includes any refunds of premiums or charges from the contracts. This secures payment of all you owe on this contract. It also secures your other agreements in this contract. You will make sure the title shows our security interest (lien) in the vehicle. You will not allow any other security interest to be placed on the title without our written permission. d. Insurance you must have on the vehicle. You agree to have physical damage insurance covering loss of or damage to the vehicle for the term of this contract. The insurance must cover our interest in the vehicle. You agree to name us on your insurance policy as an additional insured and as loss payee. If you do not have this insurance, we may, if we choose, buy physical damage insurance. If we decide to buy physical damage insurance, we may either buy insurance that covers your interest and our interest in the vehicle, or buy insurance that covers only our interest. If we buy either type of insurance, we will tell you which type and the charge you must pay. The charge will be the premium for the insurance and a finance charge computed at the Annual Percentage Rate shown on page 1 of this contract. If the vehicle is lost or damaged, you agree that we may use any insurance settlement to reduce what you owe or repair the vehicle. e. What happens to returned insurance, maintenance, service, or other contract charges. If we get a refund of insurance, maintenance, service, or other contract charges, you agree that we may subtract the refund from what you owe. 3. IF YOU PAY LATE OR BREAK YOUR OTHER PROMISES a. You may owe late charges. You will pay a late charge on each late payment as shown on page 1 of this contract. Acceptance of a late payment does not excuse your late payment or mean that you may keep making late payments. If you pay late, we may also take the steps described below. b. You may have to pay all you owe at once. If you break your promises (default), we may demand that you pay all you owe on this contract at once. Default means: • You do not pay any payment on time; • You give false, incomplete, or misleading information during credit application; • You start a proceeding in bankruptcy or one is started against you or your property; or • You break any agreements in this contract. The amount you will owe will be the unpaid part of the Amount Financed plus the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge, any late charges, and any amounts due because you defaulted. c. You may have to pay collection costs. If we hire an attorney who is not our salaried employee to collect what you owe, you will pay the attorney's fee and court costs the law permits. The maximum attorney's fee you will pay will be 15% of the amount you owe, unless a court awards an additional amount. d. We may take the vehicle from you. If you default, we may take (repossess) the vehicle from you if we do so peacefully and if the law allows it. If your vehicle has an electronic tracking device (such as GPS), you agree that we may use the device to find the vehicle. If we take the vehicle, any accessories, equipment, and replacement parts will stay with the vehicle. If any personal items are in the vehicle, we may store them for you. If you do not ask for these items back, we may dispose of them, as the law allows. e. How you can get the vehicle back if we take it. If we repossess the vehicle, you may pay to get it back (redeem). We will tell you how much to pay to redeem. Your right to redeem ends when we sell the vehicle. f. We will sell the vehicle if you do not get it back. If you do not redeem, we will sell the vehicle. We will send you a written notice of sale before selling the vehicle. We will apply the money from the sale, less allowed expenses, to the amount you owe. Allowed expenses are expenses we pay as a direct result of taking the vehicle, holding it, preparing it for sale, and selling it. Attorney fees and court costs, if the law permits, are also allowed expenses. If any money is left (surplus), we will pay it to you unless the law requires us to pay it to someone else. If money from the sale is not enough to pay the amount you owe, you must pay the rest to us unless the law provides otherwise. If you do not pay this amount when we ask, we may charge you interest at a rate not exceeding the highest lawful rate until you pay. g. What we may do about optional insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts. This contract may contain charges for optional insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts. If we demand that you pay all you owe at once or we repossess the vehicle, you agree that we may claim benefits under these contracts and cancel them to obtain refunds of unearned charges to reduce what you owe or repair the vehicle. If the vehicle is a total loss because it is confiscated, damaged, or stolen, we may claim benefits under these contracts and cancel them to obtain refunds of unearned charges to reduce what you owe. 4. WARRANTIES SELLER DISCLAIMS Unless the Seller makes a written warranty, or enters into a service contract within 90 days from the date of this contract, the Seller makes no warranties, express or implied, on the vehicle, and there will be no implied warranties of merchantability or of fitness for a particular purpose. This provision does not affect any warranties covering the vehicle that the vehicle manufacturer may provide. 5. SERVICING AND COLLECTION CONTACTS You agree that we may try to contact you in writing, by e-mail, or using prerecorded/artificial voice messages, text messages, and automatic telephone dialing systems, as the law allows. You also agree that we may try to contact you in these and other ways at any address or telephone number you provide us, even if the telephone number is a cell phone number or the contact results in a charge to you. 6. APPLICABLE LAW Federal law and the law of the state of Oklahoma apply to this contract. ARBITRATION PROVISION PLEASE REVIEW - IMPORTANT - AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS 1. EITHER YOU OR WE MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN US DECIDED BY ARBITRATION AND NOT IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL. 2.

DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL IN ARBITRATION ARE GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN IN A LAWSUIT, AND OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU AND WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. Any claim or dispute, whether in contract, tort, statute or otherwise (including the interpretation and scope of this Arbitration Provision, and the arbitrability of the claim or dispute), between you and us or our employees, agents, successors or assigns, which arises out of or relates to your credit application, purchase or condition of this vehicle, this contract or any resulting transaction or relationship (including any such relationship with third parties who do not sign this contract) shall, at your or our election, be resolved by neutral, binding arbitration and not by a court action. If federal law provides that a claim or dispute is not subject to binding arbitration, this Arbitration Provision shall not apply to such claim or dispute. Any claim or dispute is to be arbitrated by a single arbitrator on an individual basis and not as a class action. You expressly waive any right you may have to arbitrate a class action. You may choose the American Arbitration Association (www.adr.org) or any other organization to conduct the arbitration subject to our approval. You may get a copy of the rules of an arbitration organization by contacting the organization or visiting its website. Arbitrators shall be attorneys or retired judges and shall be selected pursuant to the applicable rules. The arbitrator shall apply governing substantive law and the applicable statute of limitations. The arbitration hearing shall be conducted in the federal district in which you reside unless the Seller-Creditor is a party to the claim or dispute, in which case the hearing will be held in the federal district where this contract was executed. We will pay your filling, administration, service or case management fee and your arbitrator or hearing fee all up to a maximum of $5000, unless the law or the rules of the chosen arbitration organization require us to pay more. The amount we pay may be reimbursed in whole or in part by decision of the arbitrator if the arbitrator finds that any of your claims is frivolous under applicable law. Each party shall be responsible for its own attorney, expert and other fees, unless awarded by the arbitrator under applicable law. If the chosen arbitration organization's rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision, then the provisions of this Arbitration Provision shall control. Any arbitration under this Arbitration Provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) and not by any state law concerning arbitration. Any award by the arbitrator shall be in writing and will be final and binding on all parties, subject to any limited right to appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act. You and we retain the right to seek remedies in small claims court for disputes or claims within that court's jurisdiction, unless such action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court. Neither you nor we waive the right to arbitrate by using self-help remedies, such as repossession, or by filing an action to recover the vehicle, to recover a deficiency balance, or for individual injunctive relief. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitrator's award. This Arbitration Provision shall survive any termination, payoff or transfer of this contract. If any part of this Arbitration Provision, other than waivers of class action rights, is deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder shall remain enforceable. If a waiver of class action rights is deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason in a case in which class action allegations have been made, the remainder of this Arbitration Provision shall be unenforceable. The Annual Percentage Rate may be negotiable with the Seller. The Seller may assign this contract and retain its right to receive a part of the Finance Charge. HOW THIS CONTRACT CAN BE CHANGED. This contract contains the entire agreement between you and us relating to this contract. Any change to this contract must be in writing and we must sign it. No oral changes are binding. Buyer Signs X __________________________ Co-Buyer Signs XN/A __________________________ If any part of this contract is not valid, all other parts stay valid.
