If a stolen car gets resold that doesn’t automatically void the original ownership papers… and that’s the standard practice in every country in the world I think.

The standard practice in most countries is that the police and the court system are distinct from this entity called Samsung.

That doesn’t affect the principle that the original ownership rights cannot be affected by any subsequent resale after theft.
