    No, but after the process, community property laws kick in (in CA) and she’ll get half.

    It depends and varies from state to state. In NY, once you file a separation agreement, your assets are fixed that point. What that means is that the division of property will be based on whatever assest existed at the time of the separation. So if one or the other party decides to blow through all the assets after that, they’ll be liable when the divorce decree comes to repay all those assets.

    Money can get tied up in dovorce. Courts often issue orders to limit acces or use of joint funds.

    It is common for one spouse to transfer money out of accounts and the other spouse has to get a court to order its return.

    If it is jointly owned property, transferring the money can look bad, may result in court sanctions or worse.

    People fight over everything in ugly divorces and people feel extremely vulnerable economically in dovorce. so they do crazy things. Ask a divorce lawyer in your state.

    BTW, if you have enough time and assets in issue, one ploy is to interview all the top divorce lawyers in your community and disclose information that is confidential so that they will have a conflict in taking your spouse as a client. It is dirty trick time in divorce and that is one of them.
