Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Is it THEFT when it was my account

[USMCWIFE31607]

I just recently went to the bank to be added on to my husband's account and when the lady typed in my SS# she said my name came up as something else. Well come to find out my ex-husband still has me on his account. My ex-husband and new husband use the same bank through the Marine Corps. Anyways, the lady that I spoke with said that Legally it is still my account and I could do what I wanted to with it. So she did update my name since it was different and then she was supposed to order a bank card for the new account and ordered it for the ex's account which I called later when I realized and canceled. But I did withdrawl $214. Is that considered theft since it was my own account???? He took my check book and credit card and ATM card to both banks when we split up last year but only had me sign papers to be taken off of one account and did not ask for me to be taken off the other when we went to court for our divorce in Dec. of 2006!!!! So can I get in trouble legally???

I don't know of any prosecutor who would be interested in such a case.

Well we are already going to court to modify divorce papers so that I can move out of state with my daughter and they gave the papers to his attorney and they are bringing it up at the same time we go to court for the other. Just wondering if it is illegal cause the lady at the bank said no but the attorney says yes.

I doubt there will be any criminal action.

However, what you did sure makes you look bad in the lawsuit.

After I did it I went back in the next day to try and put it in and the accounts were already closed out. I still have it and am willing to give it back to him but the account was closed. I just did it to piss him off and show him that he is stupid for not taking me off.
