Oct. 13 2009, Published 5:09 a.m. ET
RadarOnline.com has learned new details about what went down during a court hearing Tuesday morning involving Jon and Kate Gosselin and that missing money.
According to a court source, Judge Arthur Tilson -- who met with them privately in the judge's quarters -- told the couple he wants the money that's been taken out of the joint account to be returned immediately.
Kate is accusing Jon of withdrawing $230,000 from their joint savings account without her permission. She claims he left only $1,000 in the account, leaving her unable to pay their bills.
For his part, Jon denied the withdrawals were inappropriate and wants Kate to account for more than $60,000 in withdrawals of her own.
As RadarOnline.com reported earlier, Jon and Kate arrived separately at the Montgomery County courthouse in Norristown, PA. Each had their own
attorneys with them.
