Sure. But the collection of the money is an issue. Also, the son in law will claim you gave permission. A criminal complaint would buttress your civil claim, if this really was theft.

If, in fact, your son-in-law defrauded you out of $1.2 million, of course you can sue him for it. Is there some reason you haven't mentioned why you think you can't sue him? Was it so long ago that the statute of limitations has elapsed?
