My soon to be ex are separated but live in the same house until divorce is final. He has not contributed towards paying the bills (mortgage, utitlities) we both oown the home and are responsible for the mortgage. How can I make him pay his portion? He says he is not paying a dime until I move out. He is saving up his money.
