My wife found a way today to take out 3 K from my biz account (it was in there because it had a hold on it bc it was a deposit...so I was waiting daily (and checking) to be able to transfer it to my private account. As of this morning, I wasn't able to...and then she took it). Im pissed at myself, though there was nothing I could do. She supposedly had her attorney meeting today. Maybe it was for a retainer. I don't know.
Is her name on the account? If so, there's probably nothing you can do about it. If her name is not on the account, you could make a stink at the bank. The latter might result in her being fired or even having criminal charges against her. Talk to your attorney about the best course of action. I have to believe that a pending theft charge would look bad in a custody hearing.

Even if you were there you would be a more patient man, a better father, a more spiritual man and in better shape. You would handle seeing her with strength and dignity.

Coach will tell you to "embrace the suck," because it's going to suck for awhile. If 3 Gs is the most expensive mistake you make in this process, you'll be getting off easy. You have learned a lesson about her ethics, one that you won't forget.
Knowing her willingness to act unethically, you need to be very careful in your interactions with her. Anything you say or do can be taken out of context and twisted to make you look abusive or like less of a father.
Right now, my words of encouragement are: Be honorable; be fair; be kind (not a doormat, but humane); be strong and know that you will get through this.
