Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Potential Fraud/Grand Larceny Charge.

Can I go to jail for using my estranged husband's debit card, although he gave me authorization on numerous occasions? I am currently under investigation in California. He has lied about circumstances and is using meth again. He has a record whereas I do not. He kept our $6743 joint income tax refund and $1000 rental deposit when we split; only giving me $80. I live with my 3 children and our mutual toddler in a rundown 1 bdrm apt; while he lives in a 3 bdrm newer home in a gated community. He also towed my (joint) truck leaving me w/o a car for many weeks. Now I have a salvaged truck that does not comply with state regulations. We have been intimate and on talking terms since the reports were made. Please advice. P.s. I have a lot of info on his illegal activity but refrain from wanting to go for the juggler.

Re: Potential Fraud/Grand Larceny Charge.

That's funny, he has no reluctance to go for YOUR jugglar, even reporting you to the police for using his credit to support your joint children. You need to see a family law attorney ASAP. He can tell you whether you need a criminal attorney too.
