Answer:

Obtain a deficiency judgment against Drew for the amount owed.

Explanation:

Even though Hale repossessed the computer, it must still seek a deficiency judgment against Drew in order to recover the money owed. If Drew cannot pay his debt, he has the right to request Hale to sell the computer in order for Hale to recover the money owed.

Repossession is one way that a lender can use to reclaim property that was put as collateral for a loan. For example, if you do not pay your car loan, the lender can simply repossess your car by taking it away without a court order. But the debtor still had the right to try to reclaim the property by paying the debt or agreeing on some type of payment procedure.
