Jon & Kate appeared together in court this morning in Philadelphia to argue their claims that each violated the terms of their divorce proceedings by withdrawing substantial amounts from their joint accounts.

The hearing lasted only one hour, in which the judge ordered them to try to work out their differences in private, according to My Fox Philly.

Kate initially accused Jon of withdrawing $230,000 from the couple's account, leaving her with less than $1,000 to pay the bills, while Jon fired back, claiming she's lying about her finances and in turn withdrew almost $70,000 from the joint account herself.

The embattled couple has two weeks to try to work it out with a private arbitrator before they are due to return to court on October 26th.
