Legal Question in Family Law in Utah

If I the wife have moved out of the house and have started filing divorce papers can my soon to be ex husband take things from me in the divorce like my car and my computer that were both purchased after moving out even though our divorce is not final? Can he claim money in my personal bank account that was used to purchase the car and computer?
