Need Help With Father Stealing Money?

When my father was in his 20s, he had a bro that died in a farm accident. My grandparents had saved college money for their son that died. My grandparents put the money into an CD which was to be given to my dad%26#039;s son (me) when I turned 18. I turned 18 on sep 10th when my mom told me about this CD and after i went to my dad%26#039;s house (their divorced) he confirmed they had left me money. My mom gave me a statment from the year 2000 that said ther was $2890 in the account with an interest rate of 5.299% which adds up to around $3700. The problem is my dad transfered the CD into his bank account 3 days before I turned 18. I asked my dad about the money and he said there was only $2200 and he transfered $2200 into his bank account and he didnt know where my mother got the bank statement. My dad then yelled at me for talking to my mom about the money saying it was between grandma, him, and me. I logged onto his bank account and there was only 1 deposit for $3700. What should I do???

If your grandparents put the CD in your name. the minor (under either the Uniform Gift to Minors Act or Uniform Transfer to Minors Act) then your father stole the money. You can ask for it back and if he won%26#039;t give it to you, sue him. The UGMA and UTMA are irrevocable gifts, and to take the money is illegal. You could also call the police and report a theft. The financial records would get subpoened and show exactly what happened. Good luck!
