Legal Question in Family Law in California

I am a stay at home mother in the middle of going through a divorce and my husband told me he is not going to be paying for my rent or expense anymore and closed down my credit card we used to share. I am trying to find a job that works with the hours that my daughter is in school. My husband just told me that if i dont pay the rent in the next few days i will evicted by the landlord and me and my daughter will have no place to go. Is he legally allowed to do this since we are technically and legally still married?

Well yes and no. No he is not allowed to get away with not supporting his family, but unless you go into court and get an emergency child and spousal support order, he will get away with it. You need to contact an attorney right away.
