What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I had a separate savings account in my name only, the money was from investments I made pre-marriage. I had it there for two months waiting for my financial adviser to meet with me for a plan.
The wife found out about it, called on the phone and hacked my PIN and transferred $19,000 from my savings to joint checking and took a cashiers check for $19,000 out of the joint account and opened an account at Wells Fargo and deposited it out of my reach.
Short term marriage of less than 4 years and going to trial Jan 09 for property distribution. At the time of the "theft" we were legally married and legal separation was a month later.
Is this a crime or do I have civil remedies against the bank? The divorce attorney has pretty much kissed off any chance of getting it back.
