Can I make my husband repay the money he cleaned out of my bank account?

Missing money at or about the time of a divorce filing creates a lot of problems for a lot of divorces. In general, the date of filing is when a court assesses assets that should be divided between the parties. But that is a general presumption that is not an absolute. If money is inappropriately spent, either just before the filing or soon after the filing for divorce, and arises to the legal concept of waste, that’s the word, waste, then that money can be brought back into the equation even if it’s missing.
