Sounds like she did it so obviously she could and deed still is in her name.
Without a written, signed and notarized contract you probably have no lawsuit against her so you’ll need to start over again…but this time, please, no money to her without simultaneously getting deed from her.
And this time do it right, having an escrow co. check her title and prepare the deed so you know she doesn’t owe a jillion $$ on it.

There was no contract just a bill of sale,for 15acres.I paid $1,500 for the property from my own mother that was back in 1994.Now she refuses to give me a deed.Can she do that?Thought I could trust my own mother.
