Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Is it lega for wife to steal property when they just got separated?

The 2nd time she kicked him out of the home, she had his guns, and gun case and remote control boats hidden from their home. Some of the guns were not his, they belonged to his Dad, and 1 of the boats belonged to a friend.

If it is community property it is not stealing. If it the property of a 3rd party, then that is the person to file the complaint. When you file for divorce, standing orders will prevent any further disposal of property. If it happens anyway, it needs to be addressed at the hearing on temporary orders.
