If you have proof that your sister authorized you to use the account that should be your defense. Any joint account owner can use the account at any time that the account is in both their names. If your sister actually gave you the ATM card and the PIN then she authorized you. If she is denying giving you this information then you would need to seek the help of an attorney.
