Jon Gosselin -- Contemptible?

Posted Oct 4th 2009 2:42PM by TMZ Staff

Kate Gosselin, Jon GosselinKate Gosselin is drawing the big gun -- we've learned she's hired legal pit bull Marty Singer to go after Jon Gosselin ... asking a judge to hold him in contempt of court for raiding their joint bank account to the tune of more than $200,000.

We've learned there is an existing court order prohibiting Jon or Kate from withdrawing any money from the account without the consent of both parties.

We've learned lawyers for Kate will go to Pennsylvania court tomorrow and argue that Jon has flagrantly violated that order, that he should be forced to return the money to the account and held in contempt.

Ironically, Jon suggested on "Larry King" he wanted to save the marriage -- at the same time he emptied the account.

7. I hope his sorry lazy ass ends up in jail. I guess Kate's tummy tuck wasn't free was it? It has ended up costing her a lot of money and her (cough cough) husband, if that's what you can call the scum bag, and that's being charitable. I hope he loses everything. Family values huh Jon! I don't think he gives a damn about his family.

8. Jon is completely without honor or ethics. No wonder Kate wanted him out of their lives. I can't imagine how hard it must have been for her to raise 8 children and have deadbeat Jon also to deal with. He has shown his true nature - which is obviously shallow and contemptible.
