Jon Gosselin is fighting back against Kate’s allegations that he secretly raided their bank accounts with his own set of explosive charges that Kate improperly withdrew money and violated a court order.
EXCLUSIVE: Kate Says Jon Emptied Her Bank Account
Jon and his lawyer filed court papers last week accusing Kate of the same type of financial misbehavior she’s hung on him.
In addition, Jon says he wants a written explanation of $1 million that Kate removed from their accounts!
In a story first reported by The Insider, Jon’s lawyers, led by Mark Heller, have filed a response with family court saying: “Husband believes…wife is continuing to hide marital funds.”
In the newly filed court papers, Jon now admits to removing money from a joint accout, which is why Kate initiated the current court action. She accused him of taking out $230,000. In responding to Kate’s charge, which contains specific amounts and dates, Jon’s lawyer issued an overall “neither admitted or denied” in the court papers. But, importantly, under that umbrella Jon does admit to Kate’s assertion that he pulled money out of that account. The papers released by his lawyer state, “husband admits that he has taken funds from the joint money market account, Husband avers that wife has removed funds from the account as well.” In fact, Jon says that Kate took out more than $60,000 from the same fund between July 17 and Sept. 29.
