OPINION

EMIL F. GOLDHABER, Chief Judge:

The issue presented to us for resolution is whether we should grant the debtor's motion to compel an automobile finance company to turn over the certificate of title to an automobile when the finance company's security interest, which is represented by its retention of that title, has been transferred to an adequately funded escrow account. We hold that the certificate of title should be relinquished.
