What is the right of residence during divorce?


Questioner

Six months ago my husband suddenly packed his bags and left the house. He moved in with his parents. We had conversations, but eventually he decided somewhere around April/May that he wanted to get a divorce. I immediately started looking for a place to live, which was very difficult. Very unexpectedly I have now found something that all went very quickly. I will soon get the key, but because I am suffering from a serious burnout, everything is going extra slowly for me. I have not yet packed everything, in the meantime the divorce procedure is ongoing, I have to mentally say goodbye to the house, the neighborhood and neighbors, I try to deal with everything that is happening and try to recover (I can hardly do anything in a day). I would like 35 days before I am ready for this transition to a new place, but my husband says that if I am not out within 14 days that he will come home and I have been warned, he will not take me into account at all in the house and will throw parties. I can't handle that at all. What are my rights in this case? Can he just do this? I really want to avoid having to involve a lawyer, but I can't stand this communication, especially if what he says actually happens.

Lawyer

Do you have your own lawyer in the divorce proceedings? If not, it might be wise for you to find a lawyer who can assist you in this. You might be able to enlist the help of family and friends in packing your belongings and moving to the new home. I understand that, given the burnout, you want to move calmly. On the other hand, your ex apparently currently lives with his parents and he also has an interest in being able to move into his own home again. Perhaps you can find a middle ground together and agree that you will have 20 or 25 days to move?
