divorce attorney Jill DuffyQuestion:

Are tax returns considered marital property?

My wife is planning on filing her taxes and getting the tax money before our divorce is finalized, and I know she won't give me any of the refund if she can help it.

Divorce attorney Jason BowmanQuestion:

My husband pays his ex-wife for child support and other costs each month via check. She won't give him her banking information so he could set up a direct deposit. She hasn't cashed a single check in 10 months!

If she doesn't want/need the money, can we reclaim it and put it into a savings account for the kids?

Question:

I moved away from my wife and children on 15 December 2005. We have a court date of 21 Mar 2006. I have been paying child support since I left and she is still denying me contact with my children. She says it's in the best interest of the children. Is this allowable? I haven't talked to my kids in almost 2.5 months. Also, my wife filed our taxes. She was suppose to let me see them before filing them. She filed them without my reviewing them and now she's keeping the money until the court date. Is that legal?

Answer:

I cannot answer your question specifically to the laws of Georgia as I am not licensed to practice law in that State. Hopefully you had a lawyer present with you at court because it sounds like you need one. You need to get temporary orders in place for custody and support. Also with respect to the issue of the tax refund, so long as it is divided between the two of you or used to pay marital bills, the court will be ok with her keeping it short term.
