Hi

My divorce was finalised a few months ago and now my ex-wife says she
would
like some of her things which she left behind - she didn't specify what
exactly she was after. We didn't part on good terms (due to her
behaviour)
and I said that she can't have anything, since she had plenty of time to
take anything she wanted before she'd moved out and since she didn't ask
for
anything after she'd moved out.

She is now talking of contacting her lawyer in order to gain access to
those
things. Since we are legally divorced, is she entitled to do so?


If they are her possessions, then yes.

You can't just keep them because she didn't ask for them back earlier.

Morally, perhaps not, if she indeed deserves a fair treatment. What I need
to know is where I stand legally.

I wasn't talking morally, I was talking about legally.

And in fact would disagree with you on the moral issue. *Morally*, if
she has not done anything about them for some time, it is not fair to
expect you to have kept them safely stored in case she decides she
wants them.

But *legally*, they are her property. If you intentionally deprive her
permanently of her property then you could be guilty of theft.
