Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

I found out that my husband was cheating. When I confronted him and told him I wanted a divorce, he packed a bag and left in the middle of the night. I did not find out until late the next evening (via Facebook) that he had boarded a bus for the Hoh Rain Forest in Washington State and did not know when he would return. He has been gone for 5 days. How can I get him off my lease, so he is not able to waltz back in when he feels like if - if he decides to come back. The apartment management requires a written and signed approval from him, that I cannot obtain at this time. Is there any legal recourse I can take to remove him?

If you have decided you want a divorce, you can file for divorce, and request Temporary Orders. It is unlikely that a hearing will be held in less than two weeks - and it will be necessary to have him served. This are issues to discuss with an attorney in a confidential setting, as there may be other factors in the proceeding that you will need to address. Good luck.
