Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Ohio
My ex used my computer without my knowledge and saved his login and password. By happenstance I stumbled upon the login and password. Can I use saved emails from my ex's account in court or is he protected under wire tapping and/or privacy laws?

I don't think their is a clear cut answer at this point. Fourth Amendment search and seizure law applies to States and other government entities so a Fourth Amendment analysis isn't likely going to get you anywhere.
Logically, if your husband saved his log/pass info on your computer and accordingly his emails were open to any user of the computer than he has no expectation of privacy.
If you want to discuss your issues further at no cost to you, feel free to contact me.
