Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
My wife and I are divorcing. I've already answered her petition. The problem is, all her stuff is still here at the house. she hasn't lived here for over 6 months. We were never very good at house keeping. but I want to sell the house with in a couple of years, when my son graduates from high school. How do I get her to move her stuff out. I've asked repeatedly, her excuse is she has no place to put stuff. but I know for a fact the she does. We were a very close family. It is emotional for both of us to go through all the stuff. but I don't want to be the bad guy. she left for another man.

Without her agreement how do you propose to sell the house. You should file a motion asking the court to order her to get her things out by a date certain.
