What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
Two years ago, shortly after separating, my daughter signed her husband's name on an insurance refund check (issued when he spitefully refused to keep his children on his insurance), then deposited the check into their joint checking account, to which he had access. The funds were then used to pay for groceries and rent, since he had also refused to provide any financial assistance for his children's care. Now that she is preparing to file for divorce, he is threatening to go to the police and file charges for that to dissuade her from filing for divorce or asking for court ordered support. What is her best course of action at this point?
