Possession is 9/10 of the law means nothing about drugs -- you people gotta learn your history! It means that, if you are in possession of something, you have the advantage of possession should ownership be disputed or some other abuse or fraud occur.
like freezing the assets of terrorists held in us banks -- we have possession. it's 9/10 of the law.

My ex-husband left a car in my fathers house over 10 years ago. My father wants the car out of the house, as he may sell the house eventually, and wants it out. Since my ex does not want to move the car, or have anything to do with it, how can I go about towing it to my house, and then selling it?

Bartlett's attributes to the English playwright Colley Cibber the quotation, "Possession is ELEVEN points in the law" ("Women's Wit," 1697, Act 1 [emphasis added]). I do not have a copy of this play, and I do not know the context; but the form of the expression I have heard that makes the most sense is, "Possession is eleven points in the law -- and they say there are but nine." Whether this is a fuller quotation from Cibber or extraneous I do not know.
