Answers:

What does the Non-Owners Insurance cover exactly?

Most states require that you register the vehicle there within 30 days. If he purchased the vehicle, or it was purchased for him, he would need to have the car registered into his own name. This would also take care of the Florida/Indiana license plate issue.

What will the court do to me?

If your "friend" is driving the car, and it is not under his name, this can have serious consequences. If he were to have an accident, the registered owner of the vehicle would be liable, and depending on the circumstances, he could be arrested.

I am from Texas. I am buying out-of-state Car from NJ from my friend. Do I need to pay any Tax in NJ?

If he cant afford to have the vehicle registered into his name, or make the payments, then he has no business driving the car.
