Re: removing items from marital home

If you're still married to him and there's no court order limiting your access, you can enter the marital home any time you wish and remove your items of personal property. And, of course, you can also leave anytime you wish, whether or not he knows about it.

And, yes, you can also obtain a divorce whether or not he wants one.
