I am the new wife to a man who is involved in what seems to be never ending child support nightmare. Most recently my husband's ex, who is representing herself in court, has subpoenaed his bank statements. My husband is self employed; he has a business account and all of the money he makes goes directly in that account. We also have a joint account together. All deposits going into the joint account are MINE. He only uses the joint account to make purchases. The subpoena calls for all accounts in his name. My question is this, what about MY right to privacy?? I feel that handing over my bank statements to my husband's ex is a total infringement of my personal right to privacy. I do no want this stranger looking and questioning my deposits. Why should I have to prove my income when I am not a party?? My husband has had problems with "someone" applying for credit cards in his name that just happen to be at the address he used to live at with his ex wife. We have had to put a fraud alert on his credit because we suspect she has been behind this. And I am supposed to hand over MY personal banking information to someone like this!? What if she does not maintain the documents properly? Throws them away instead of shredding? Does anyone see my point?? I have since removed my husband from the joint account. All of our finances are separate to avoid this in the future, but she is requesting the last 2 years... Any thoughts??
