    We owned a restaurant. The decree said that we each were to pay our own bills for the last 6 months the business was open but she kept ALL of the profits. I have 95% of it documented in ‘Red Books” that I filled out daily and monthly. In addition, she opened a credit card in my name (by on line application) and charged her bills, some restaurant bills, and our daughter’s braces, mattress, and (a year’s worth of) school lunches. How can I recoup my half of the profits? How can I get her to pay her half of the Discover card?

She drives a convertible mercedes, Hummer and lives in her boy friends 2 million dollar home. I make $30.00 per hour and barely get by…HELP

    Unaccountable for anything
    My ex has a cash business with few discernible records. Its remarkable how she manages to live her life style without income. Yet I am expected to provide detailed records. It’s an unfair double standard.
