How often courts cite this section

citing decisions per year

Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.

“Owner” when referring to the owner of a vehicle means:

(1) The person in whose name title to a vehicle is issued, and who is entitled to possession and use of the vehicle.

(2) If the title and right to possession and use for a vehicle are in different persons:

(a) The person, other than a security interest holder, who is entitled to the possession and use of the vehicle under a security agreement.

(b) The lessor or lessee of a vehicle, as designated by the lessor on the application for title, if the lessee is entitled to possession and use of the vehicle under a lease agreement.
