Judgment

The Savings Withdrawal

1. Having heard the parties and reviewed the evidence presented, the Court finds in favor of the Plaintiff, Elena Mercer. Findings 2. The evidence establishes that the parties discussed Graham’s use of joint savings to assist with obtaining separate housing. However, the evidence does not establish that Elena authorized Graham to withdraw or transfer the entire $6,400 for unrestricted use. Graham acknowledges that he transferred the funds before providing Elena with an itemized explanation of the intended expenditures. His evidence establishes, at most, an agreement concerning necessary housing expenses, and does not establish consent to the full withdrawal. 3. The Court finds that the $6,400 withdrawal must be accounted for. Graham shall provide a complete accounting and supporting documentation for all expenditures made from those funds. Any portion not established as an authorized or necessary marital expense shall be restored to the parties’ joint savings or otherwise credited as directed by the Court. 4. With respect to temporary support, the parties have demonstrated materially different positions concerning income, necessary expenses, and the availability of overtime. Based on the evidence presently before the Court, temporary support of $600 per month is appropriate, subject to modification upon a substantial change in circumstances. Order 5. Until further order, neither party shall make nonroutine withdrawals from joint savings without the written consent of the other party or authorization of this Court. 6. Judgment is entered in favor of the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff’s requests for temporary support, an accounting of the $6,400 withdrawal, and restrictions on further nonroutine withdrawals are granted, subject to the accounting and any subsequent adjustment ordered by the Court.
