Do I Have To Leave My Home?
Coeur d’Alene Lawyer Specializing in Legal Separation and Divorce
If your marriage is in distress, your spouse may have asked you to leave the house — or you may have asked your husband or wife to leave. While it is without a doubt stressful to share a home with a partner when discord has broken down the previously trusting relationship, Idaho law protects people’s right to remain in their domicile. Even if your name is not on the title of your marital home, your husband or wife does not have the legal authority to kick you out.
