I'm not a family lawyer. However, in civil cases, you can demand them from the other litigant if they're relevant, and subpoena them from the bank after giving notice to the consumer (there's a form to complete). The other party will have a chance to object based upon privacy and other issues and seek a court order to quash the subpoena.
