If you had a joint checking account with your boyfriend but have removed yourself from it is it legal for him to still use the checks with your name on them?

Yes. The name/names on a check simply means they are legally authorized to sign it. * The names on the checks are really not the issue. When a checking account is jointly held one of the holder's cannot simply take their name off the account. The account has to be closed and each party will be required to open a new account in whatever status they choose. It would be in the best interest of the person wishing to be excluded from financial responsibility to contact the bank to make certain they have been relieved of all responsibility concerning the account. The UCC states that only the signer of a check is responsible. However, not closing the account properly can create any number of problems for one or both account holders.

Can you remove a persons name from your checking account if they are not listed as a primary?
If the person's name is not listed as a primary account holder, you usually cannot remove their name from the account. Only the primary account holder can make changes to the account. A joint account holder can be removed if both parties agree, but it may be best to speak with your bank for specific guidance on your situation.
Can only 1 person close a joint checking account?
It turns out that the answer is yes, which was rather a surprise to me. A person I know closed her joint checking account (with her husband) after her divorce, because he kept overdrawing on the account. She tried to have her name removed from the account, but they wouldn't do that without him; however, bizarrely, they were perfectly happy to simply close the account on her say-so. (This may have been practical: they may have just decided "it's better for us to close the account than to take the one person who actually puts money IN off the account.")
What do you do if your name has been removed from a joint checking account without your consent?
Depends on what type of an account it was set up as. If you were a signer on an account, then most certainly the owner of the account can remove you. Same as applies to accounts set up under a trust. if it was a joint with right of surviorship, most institutions prefer to just close the account and reopen the account under the requestor. even if there is a divorce decree. or "death certifacte" Either way, if you were removed from the account without your consent, you should call your financial institution right away.

Can my boyfriend have me arrested for using his checking account without his authorization to pay a credit card if I already paid him back all the money and this happened 5 months ago?
No, he cannot. Although you probably should not have used his account without his prior approval, you have removed one element of a possible criminal offense by paying him back thereby demonstrating that you had NO CRIMINAL INTENT. He cannot now use that to hang over your head. [I hope that you kept the proof that you repaid the money!]
