Community property in a marriage

Do you have a temporary order from the family court?  If soand  each was ordered to keep the vehicle they were driving then he is in contempt.  If not t hen you need to file a Complaint for Separate Support and Maintenance so that you can prevent actions such as this.  There is technically no such thing as "marital property"  until a Complaint is filed with the court.  So if you are separated but have not filed anything there could be a lot of liability.  If your husband racks up debts, you may be on the hook for half the debt.  If he has money in your accounts he can spend it all and it would not matter because there is no court order to prevent it.  When you file a Complaint with the court then "marital property" is created.  You should  request a temporary hearing with your Complaint so that you can have some relief on a temporary basis.  You could ask for a restraining order wirh regards to all property and accounts.  You can get your vehicle back as well.   It does not matter whose name the vehicle is in.  It was purchased when you were married so it is considered marital property.  You may also be entitled to alimony, child support, and the marital home while you are waiting for the year to pass.  Also if your husband has you/children on his insurance policy he must maintain that until the divorce is final.
