Did you ask for exclusive use and possession of the home in your divorce petition? Do you own the home or rent? If you own is your husband on the deed?  If you rent is your husband on the lease? These are important questions that must be answered before I could respond to your inquiry. There are several ways to get your husband out, including (1) eviction (2) order granting exclusive use of home, (3)domestic violence injunction (4) temporary order granting exclusie use of home, (5) settlement agreement or MSA in which husband agrees to vacate within specified time (6) mediation agreement in which husband agrees to vacate within a specified time.  If these fail, you could just ask him nicely to leave and give him enough money to pay a rent and utility deposit in a new place.  Sometimes the best way to get someone to leave is to make it easy for them to do so.
