Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I have been married 29 years. Married in MS but lived in Florida for 22 years. I just found out my husband has had an affair and helped this woman financially. I have been diagnosed with cancer and wondering if I can make him move out of our home without being forced to buy him out? This is very stressful to my health and I need peace of mind. He lost his job and says he cannot move until he finds employment and becomes stable. Can I make him move out?

You can file for a divorce and request sole use of the marital home during the course of divorce proceedings. You have the option of ask the Court to Partition [divide the home] or Put the House Up for Sale. Based on the information, if he has no other place to stay, however, the court may request that you two partition the home, so that neither is homeless or simply agree to put the house up for sale.
