Do You Have To Move Out Of Your House During Divorce?

Your husband wants a divorce and tells you to get out of the house. You wife is angry and tells you to move out, she is getting a divorce. What do you do? This is often the way divorces begin and it is unfortunate. In Arizona, a house that was purchased during the marriage is presumed to be community property, in other words owned by each party. Once one party leaves a home, the court may later determine that the remaining party can change the locks, subject to the leaving party getting their personal property.
