How do you get your spouse out of the house is they are not
contributing to the bills at the house? Hi. I'm Connie Merwine, a
family law attorney in Pennsylvania. I recently had a
case where the woman had withdrawn for the marriage, and
wasn't contributing financially towards the bills, the husband
came to see me and ask how he could get her out of the house,
since she wasn't contributing to the financial obligations in the
home. What we had to do in Pennsylvania was file the
divorce first; this allowed us then to file a position for
exclusive possession. We went in front of the judge and told him
about the situation - financially she wasn't
contributing and the marriage was broken. At that time, we
received an order that the wife had to either contribute half
the costs or move out. And she eventually moved out, with my
client receiving his court order for exclusive possession. If you
are in a situation like this or have similar questions, give us
a call and set up a consultation and we can discuss what options
you have available to you. Thank you for listening.
