Legal Question in Family Law in California

Legality of using Banking Statements for Income Evidence

For a divorce proceeding, (no children involved), are my personal banking statements showing ALL transactions relevant, or permitted to be requested for the purpose of showing income. Taxes and tax filings were submitted, but now they want all banking statements. Am I not protected under a privacy law, especially since I showed my tax information? This is for the purpose of spousal support. Is it relevant what and how I spend my personal monies?
