Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pennsylvania

First, you couldn't do anything, but your wife might be able to. You have several separate issues:

As to taking your possessions and putting them in the shed: This is almost certainly not permissible. However, your damages would be very limited as there's very little of value there. It's better to focus on the below.

As to kicking you out of your room: If they are on the mortgage, I assume they are also on the title. It would depend on how their ownership is construed on the title as to what your remedies might be. In most cases (assuming they are both on the title either as joint tenants or tenants in common), the one owner can't kick the other out of a part of the property. Your wife has a right to use it. In this case your wife can bring a claim for the fair rental value of that part of the property she has been excluded from.

If you would like to discuss your matter further over a free phone consult, feel free to contact me at your convenience.
