How do you hide money during divorce What are marital assets in divorce Utah?
And why can't my attorney find the money she stole?
It is my spouse that is hiding the money, actually. I just want to know her motives and how she did it?
Do not do that, to intentionally make a false statement to a court is a crime. At the moment your only problem is a messy divorce, do not add to it. Your fellow citizens have passed laws sating how the property accrued in a marriage is to be divided up in a divorce, this may be painful but it is fair. When you married the other person you said "with all my worldly goods I thee endow" - you can not expect to walk away from that promise. You marital assets are all the property, stocks and shares, pensions and money etc that BOTH of you have to your name minus all of both of your debts. You are each entitled to 1/2 but you must also sort out how any children are to be raised of there are any.

Yeah, I think I know that kind sir. (By the way, you can bring as many two ounce bottles as you want, but I strongly suggest not to. You'll kill the hippo in your brain.)

Any horses found there today are actually the descendants of those brought from Europe and therefore re-introduced species. Musk Oxen are currently only found in the Arctic. Camels were native to North American (like horses), but have never been re-introduced since their extinction here.
