Re: home owner
Unfortunately, the easiest avenue for you to proceed is through court. Other options could possibly result in him filing criminal charges or for protective orders.
Re: home owner
An attorney would need to know the surrounding background story of the marriage to give you a good answer. Most important would be any history of violence or threatening behavior. It is your residence so you have a right to be there, but without the support of law enforcement, forcing your way in would be risky.
The safest thing to do is file an action in court.
