OPINION
BOURCIER, Justice.
This case came before us on the appeal of the defendants, Elisa Delfino (Delfino), Delfi-nó’s husband, Paul, and Donald C. Rich (Rich), from the order of a trial justice, rendered after a nonjury trial in the Superior Court. 1 The trial justice, relying primarily upon our opinion in Nocera v. Lembo, 121 R.I. 216, 397 A.2d 524 (1979), ordered the defendants to return the monetary funds previously contained in joint bank accounts that Delfino and Rich individually maintained with Florence A. Izzi.
