Can your spouse legally empty a joint bank account before divorce papers are filed in Michigan? Yes, usually, if no court order prevents it, making immediate action essential if this happens to you.

• Before a divorce filing and court orders, joint account holders typically have full access to withdraw funds. • If your account is emptied, file for divorce IMMEDIATELY to allow the court to potentially intervene regarding the funds. • Timing is critical; waiting significantly weakens your chances of recovering funds or getting an offset from other assets. • If funds were spent wastefully (dissipated), the court might still offset the amount from the spender's share of remaining marital property. • Courts may order funds returned or offset if the money was taken unfairly "in contemplation of divorce."
