Stolen inheritance money

[macavoy]

What is the name of your state? mizzou

. Ill try and make the story short if possible.

MY sister in law lives with her boyfriend/common law husband and they have two kids. Sister in law just received 25k in the death of a dear aunt... Sister in law and bf have a joint account. Sister in law put money in bank to save for the kids and boyfriend decided to take it all out, changed accounts and redeposited the money excluding her name, bought a truck and had title put in his name, a computer and is now saying he wants out of the relationship and basicly leaving the "nest egg" for the kids at 0....

So he stole her and kids inheritance and is bailing. There has to be some recourse. Someone please help me out.

If she went and put the money into an account that they both had legal rights to use he likely had a legal (but not moral) right to make any withdrawals from the account, as they BOTH owned it. Why in heavens name didn't she open one or more seperate accounts for that money? Great guy.

Even my husband and I maintain some seperate accounts, but ALL the money into a boyfriend accessable account? A BF who thinks a dang truck is what one should do with a financial windfall?

Try posting this in the criminal activities and see if his actions constitute an illegal act.

Maybe one of the family law attorneys know if there is anything she can do. I DO know that his withdrawing the money from an account that he, too, owned, is not fraud

Does your bank have a limit of money that can be withdrawen without both signatures- My hubby or I can not withdraw over $300.00 without both names on withdrawel slip or check ! We set it up this way-

that doesnt always work. my husband and i had an account that had to have both our sigs for ANY withdraws. he went in one day and took out ALL the money and closed the account without ME. i think there was probably something i could have done about it but he didnt do anything that wasnt ok with me with the money. it till really upet me though that they let people do this! i mean whatif he would have drained itand ran off or something? i now have an account somewhere else and tested them with the same typeof thing. they didnt give him the money and needless to say, they still have my business. i really think everyone should check into how their bank handles these things before they wind up in a bad situation.
