I have never heard of a landlord evicting one household member and not all. I suspect that there is more to this than you stated. I suspect that your wife also wants you out of the house. If that is the case, the best court to hear this is probate court which has jurisdiction over husbands and wifes.
It sounds as if you have limited rights, as some form of tenancy.
If he wants to act, he will have to go most likely to housing court and request an eviction.
