“The two accounts involved here were separate ascertainable amounts and accounts. The money was, therefore, specific and identifiable.

By withdrawing the money, appellant exercised wrongful dominion and control to the detriment of appellee. Therefore a conversion action was proper. [Emphasis added].”
