Stars including Angelina Jolie, Reese Witherspoon and Kate Winslet have had thousands of dollars of their assets seized by the state of California under a new law.

Thandie Newton, Clive Owen, Helen Mirren, Michael Caine and Colin Farrell have also fallen victim to the ruling, which allows the state to take possession of bank accounts, security boxes and stocks if they have remained dormant for longer than three years.

Owen had $4,658 seized; Jolie $659; Newton $1,192, while Farrell lost $1,113.
