Subject: [cdcbaa] Pre-filing savings
I have a husband who wants to file an individual Chap 7. Prior to the
marriage, his then future mother-in-law created a joint account for the wife
(her daughter) and herself with the specific purpose of keeping the money as
part of the wife's separate property. All the money in the account is
deposited by the mother-in-law. The wife only withdraws from the account.
There has been no co-mingling of funds and the husband does not have access
to the account. The wife has not made any deposits into the account.
Is the account being jeopardized by the hubby's filing? Is there something
that needs to be done to "protect" the funds from being accessible to the
trustee?
