Bank Accounts and Joint Tenancy
When salaries, contributions and other evidence were considered, it was clear that both parties contributed to bank accounts and both parties were entitled to divisional shares in them; therefore the trial court abused its discretion in awarding wife-plaintiff the husband-defendant’s joint tenancy interest in the bank accounts. Fuqua v. Fuqua
Trial court did not err in finding that the defendant overcame the presumption of a gift of one-half of the $21,000 balance in the account and that the account was jointly held for convenience. Anagnostopoulos v. Anagnostopoulos
