Legal Question in Family Law in California

I have been seperated since 1998, dissolution filed, however the other party was too uncooperative to be able to devise a marital settlement agreement which we were given the mediator assistance with at that time. Due having both parties filed as ProPer this case was only able to have the Custody and Support issues settled in court with court orders. I have paid al;l of the debts he was never willing to pay and never received a dime of support since 2004. DCSS even was of absolutley no help in enforcing him to comply with these orders, because I was not a state assisted funds collection case and was only money he owed to me, boy they suck! My question is I am process of buying a home and I am told that he cant get to the house if anything happens because I am the only pone on this titile, the lawyer said if filed now then the standard restraint orders of family law will hold me up in the withdrawal of my 401k that I am using for down payment, for this house. So then what is best in this situation. he is drug addict that is cared for by Mommy and daddy and so is most likely never going to have it together enough to try to take it court to fight for the house even if I died. He already withdrew all of the CAL PERS account that was only asset I had intention of equal rights to, back in 2007, so that is long gone too. So much for joint property laws in California on that one Yeah I been screwed already for all he could get from me so I am worried that be my luck! What is best?????
