Legal Question in Family Law in California
My soon to be ex-husband moved out of the house September 1st, 2009. He left 90% of his belongings behind. Although our divorce is not final until March 2010, the default judgement has been signed by a judge. Can I legally get rid of his things? I have asked him numerous times to pick them up. Thank You

No. Until the divorce is final you cannot arbitrarily discard his property. That is, if the house you are living in is 1/2 his, he can store his things at his house.
