[nabs-l] Question for you all

[Desiree Oudinot]

Hi,
If his mom co-signed the account, there's no legal action he could
take. If he got the account before he turned 18, he would have had to
have a parent sign for it, so the only real solution in that
predicament would be to close the current account and open a new one.
The problem with that suggestion is that I believe you would have to
obtain the other person's permission to close the account as well.
Both people would have to sign to close the account. I know that's how
it works with joint bank accounts for couples. My sister had to go
through that with her ex, so I imagine it really wouldn't be any
different if it's a parent and child who have a shared account. Of
course, opening a second account with a different bank could be an
option.
