Joint Account with Right of Survivorship: the joint account-holder becomes Joint Owner & can write checks & withdraw money from the bank or broker account or make investment decisions without knowledge or permission of other Joint Owner; easy to create; no legal expenses incurred upon creation nor upon death of Owner; no need for death certificate unless Tax Identif. Number must be changed.

Yes. The husband can execute a POA making his mother the attorney-in-fact to act on his behalf. The wife should withdraw at least half the funds in the account and deposit it in her own name. She might want to discuss the situation with an attorney if a considerable sum of money is involved. The situation would be intolerable to most wives.Yes.

A bank account can usually only be held for thirty days from the time it is secured. The joint account holder should contact the bankruptcy trustee to learn what is necessary to have their percentage of the funds returned.
Nothing will happen.
If you have a bank account, doing a fund transfer is quite easy. All you need is the transfer details for the other bank. If you are having trouble transferring funds, speak to your bank executive for help.
If it is a joint account, they can take the funds in that account. Depending on which state you live in, there are different exemption rules. In Michigan, they can take all the funds, even if the account is joint, as long as it has your name on it. If your husband had an account with his name only (which is what you may want to set up immediately), then they could not take those funds. Your husband is not legally responsible for your credit card debts if your name is the only name on the credit card. Check with your state's laws regarding collection and exemptions.
Only if she thinks that you have either stolen from her or secretly (and quite possibly illegally) transferred funds from her account to someone else's account.
If YOU are the inheritor of a portion of an estate it does not automatically become community property. It is YOU that was named, not you and your husband. CAUTION: the question states that it is in a separate account - do not inter-mingle these funds with other "household" money or accounts.
Yes, you can do that. Since you are the joint holder of the bank accounts of your mother and father, you can very well withdraw funds from the account. However it is better to provide your parents' death certificate to the bank and convert them into single holding accounts because your parents are deceased and they can no longer use the accounts.
Yes, someone can direct deposit funds into your account with your permission and providing them with your account details.
Not without a court order. In most instances the only time a court would issue such an order would be in relation to child support arrearages. Even in cases where the husband removed funds from a joint marital account and opened an account with his sister using those funds, the wife would have to file a lawsuit to attempt to recover her portion, (attempt being the key word).
If the named person is not a joint account holder with rights of survivorship the bank account monies will become the property of the probate court and be distributed according to succession law of the state where account holder resided at the time of his or her death.
