When a married couple splits can the spouse come in and take what they want from the house before divorced?

Some friends of mine have been married only a few months.. they separated.. the one who moved out came in and took what they wanted that was given to them together from bridal showers, friends, etc. Came in while the spouse was at work and took several things that was theirs together. I need to know if this is legal or not and what can be done about it if it is not legal.When a married couple splits can the spouse come in and take what they want from the house before divorced?
Not really but they do it anyways. If you are getting a divorce the courts can make you divide up the property 50/50. Most people take things because they want to be vindictive.When a married couple splits can the spouse come in and take what they want from the house before divorced?
The answer will vary based on the state in which they reside. Have your friend get an attorney NOW! Also, he may be able to reclaim some of the property if he can prove it came from his relative...basically she keeps what came from her family/friends, he keeps what came from his family/friends.
They are still married and so they are entitled to what ever is in the house. If your friend had any brains they would have changed the locks so they don't come home to little surprises like this.
Don't get in to that. I bet u they will get together. I am sure that they might be some legal thing that says this is not right. But it sounds more like a selfish thing..doesn't?
I suggest your friend change the locks and the police (if he or she calls them) will escort him or her in to take things that DO belong to him... List the things they have taken... when it does go to court...
I really don't think there is anything that can be done about it. If they live there they can take what the want out.
Nope, not legal. But it would surely be a huge, expensive fight...to get those things back.
its he said, she said, ****, stay out of it
