In general, if you are still married and there is not a divorce in progress, and these are not separate property items (basically things that were gifts to you, that you owned before the marriage, or that you have inherited) everything you own (and everything he owns) is community property and he has the same right to dispose of any of it as you do. You should really find a good family law attorney in your area and go discuss your situation with him or her.
