King County, WA? Move, like I did. (And I don't mean, move to Pierce
County!)

I don't know the state laws that apply, but it may be in your best interest
to wait for the disposition of the criminal case, or you may be better off
suing at the same time. This is for a lawyer versed in the local laws to
figure out. With stolen property, possibly felonies committed, you may
qualify for punitive damages.

On the other hand, pursuing a civil case is extremely stressful, even if you
use a lawyer as intermediary. What year is your XJ, and what was its real
value? If you want to save yourself a lot of trouble and annoyance, forget
about it, and take whatever restitution the criminal court decides to give
you.

Oh Carl, that sucks!
I hope it is well insured, but that still doesn't take the pain away of
losing your Jeep.
Your insurance company should cover anything except your deductible.

When they go to court, request court ordered restitution. It can be ordered,
but you will still play hell collecting though.

It's strange that that sort of thing is happening in your area.
Was it kids or part of the group that is stripping the vehicles out?

So very sorry to hear.

Dunno where you are, but a few club members I know have found theirs by driving
around checking back lots and alleys. Granted their rigs were pretty well stripped
but they found them.
