Well it is comforting to have your qualified approval, but until appropriate proceedings are underway and specific orders issued AND SERVED, neither spouse is legally obligated to account to the other for a blessed thing!
However, the OP WILL be required to account to the other once the orders are served--even for those actions taken before service. So, while the OP does not have to say now, he will have to say what is happening now someday. He better keep track or risk being in fiduciary breach.

That may be true. However, the specific appellate case I was referring to was one that covered the OP's situation of removal of money from a joint account after separation. It's not "saber rattling" but the law.
