		<description><![CDATA[As a child, my son had cancer and was given money by city police officers, (called a "10-13") totaling 13,000 in case our medical coverage became exhausted. My ex husband and I have been divorced about 4 years now and he says he doesn't have the money because he spent it on all the furniture that we owned at that time. When he left us, he took the money from our then bank account.  What can I do to get back what is owed to my son?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I live in Texas and I am going through a divorce. We have been separated since June of 2007. I received my 401K 1099-R form in the mail this January '08 and learned that 17K was distributed from my 401K account without my knowledge. What are the legal ramifications for her falsifying my signature and calling in and lying to obtain the disbursement from the 401K investment firm?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As of right now, my wife and I are separated (not legally, however).  My wife's name and my name are both on the contract.  I've asked my mother-in-law to take my name off the contract since I'm not living there anymore.  Also, I've tried to give a 30 day notice as well, but to no avail.  Does she have a right to keep my name on the contract even though I'm not living there anymore?]]></description>
