Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia

Rights to house after legal seperation

My husband and I signed legal seperation papers in Feb. It was stated in the papers that I would keep the house and have sole responsibility for the house. I have not been able to get his name off of the title yet (it is a doublewide). What rights does he have to come and go as he pleases in the house? What would happen if I canged the locks? He is now refusing to sign the title over to me so I can refinance the house.
