    The Theft Act provides the definition of theft, it doesn't provide the grounds for prosecution, the evidence does.

    One person took money out of their joint account, which the other person had put in there - never mind all the he said, she said - it's a joint account, there is no theft. If you don't want the other account holder to withdraw money from an account, then its best not to put it in there.


    The father set up a joint account for the purpose of giving the ex wife maintainance of set sums at set intervals

    Ex wife ignored these and withdrew money meant for this purposes that she wasnt entiitled too.

    If the OP has admitted it to people like she did on here then plenty of evidence will exist of theft

    At the end of the day we wont agree but as far as I am concerned the OP had no right to take money out other than as agreed and hence has commited the offence of theft. I am more than convinced a court would agree that this is theft.
