Lawsuits and indictments against Joseph Smith and…

January 1838 CE

Lawsuits and indictments against Joseph Smith and his banking partners eventually become severe, with at least $6,100 worth of civil suits outstanding against him in Chardon, Ohio courts.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Smith on a charge of bank fraud.

On January 12, 1838, Smith and Rigdon leave Kirtland; those who continue to support Smith leave Kirtland for Missouri shortly thereafter.
