Hi, Im new but will add this note...I live in the US and the laws regarding JOINT bank accounts here are...a person listed on the account cannot CLOSE the account without the other persons signature (with the bank)...I was told this by my banks. But..any one of the joint owners can drain the account (just leave in a few dollars if u want)...my husband did that years ago..it was our account, he took the money..left $7 in it...I did not even know in advance. Check with your banks..you have the right to get this info and the bank should not contact him to ask his permission to share this with you. JOINT OWNERSHIP is just that. It is equally yours..even if you did not put one cent in it. Same goes for property listed as Joint Tenants by the Entireties...neither one of you can sell any property without the others signature. If there is enuf money in that JOINT account Id take the money and move...but please check into your laws on Abandonment..it can get tricky.
Your H sounds like mine as far as all of the personality traits...I am in a situation that is difficult..I want to separate but he wont leave..and I have no place to go with me and my animals...so here I sit in misery..we have been together for 40+ years. Sad. Good luck to you...lastly..arent their any Domestic Violence Groups in your area..usually they will offer legal advice for free since u r not employed..and mental and verbal abuse is considered DV. Peace .
