- Q. Husband changed the locks and refuses to allow me to enter, belongings have not been divided and two children involved
- A: Probably, unless there is a court protection order or he has been given exclusive occupancy by the courts. Are you going through a divorce, then discuss with your attorney. If you go there, take a policeman with you. Hire an attorney if you dont have one.
- Q. How do I turn in my husband for bigamy and can I sue him in the divorce?
