Need to Know

I am in the middle of my 12 month separation and need soem advice. How do I get my ex to stop coming into the house. I am living in our house (it is on the market but he is still paying half the mortgage, half of the expenses and his name is still on the deed)? He stops by anytime he wants without "asking," and gets the mail out of hte mailbox even though he has moved out and set up his own residence. I asked him to stop but he told me that as long as his name was on the deed and some of his stuff was there he coudl come and go as he pleases. Do you know if this is true? It seems so intruisive to me.

while you are home, if your doors have screen/glass doors, keep them locked - if you don't have screen/glass doors - see if you can have them installed -

if he shows up and you don't want to let him in you don't have to unlock the screen door...

Unless in the separation agreement you addressed the issue, he is correct, he has every right to come and go as he pleases.

If he goes to the house when you aren't there, have a home alarm system installed and don't give him the code. =)

go get a po box and have your mail forwarded there.
