Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio

Legal division of property

I know a couple that has been divorced since Dec. 2004. The home

and all of it's contents has been divided since then. He still resides there, and she was granted most of it's contents. The problem now is that she is refusing to pick up her belongings, so the basement is now a cluttered mess. At what point does he have the right to dispose of these things legally? She has been told numerous times to get her things. There is a court protection order involved, so she is not permitted on the property. However, she has plenty of family that is willing to help. This is not a free storage facility. Please help.

Re: Legal division of property

One option is to liquidate them and send her the check less the cost of liquidation. Since there is a protective order against her, I suggest not doing this without notice to the court or a letter to her from an attorney.
