Not so fast, Jon Gosselin!
Despite the fact that his lawyer Mark Heller said Jon was in “complete compliance” with a court order that required him to return $181,000 he took from the couple’s joint bank account, Kate’s lawyer tells RadarOnline.com that’s not true.
Mark Momjian revealed to RadarOnline.com that Jon has only put back $28,500!

Heller said earlier Friday that Jon had put back the money but that’s not so, says Kate’s lawyer Momjian, who also questions why Heller is speaking for Jon.
Momjian told RadarOnline.com: “Mr. Heller doesn’t represent Jon Gosselin in the divorce action in state of Pennsylvania so it’s a little puzzling to us why he’s making statements on a case he is not counsel of record on.

“He’s withdrawn his application to be admitted specially in Pennsylvania.
“All I can tell you is Jon Gosselin has until Monday to put all the money back and we hope he complies.
“We’ve only seen a very small a very small partial compliance as of today but he has until Monday.

“Regardless of Mr. Heller’s comment, we haven’t received confirmation that he’s returned the $151,500 that he needs to pay to bring his total to $180,000.
“We don’t have confirmation of that.
“Mr. Gosselin has a Pennsylvania lawyer and I would think that he would be talking to him, not Mr. Heller.”
The money was supposed to be sent into wife’s counsel escrow account and $28,500 has only been confirmed as of now.
Momjian also said: "My client would be relieved to report that he (Jon) has fully complied...I would be relieved, too!
"But he hasn't as of now."
UPDATE: Momjian also told RadarOnline.com: "We got an email at 1:23 (ET) this afternoon saying that Jon Gosselin purportedly had sent $152,000 to his lawyer in Pennsylvania.
"The money had not come to us yet, per the court order's directive. Jon's lawyers is making a representation that the money is with him; the court order required that the money is to go to us. We're waiting for it."
Jon’s lawyer had said earlier Friday that Jon was in compliance with the court order. But, as Momjian points out Jon is not in compliance and won’t be until the money is in the account.
Momjian told RadarOnline.com that that Jon has until Monday to be in compliance "but he is not in full compliance as of yet."
And that’s the bottom line!
