You need an attorney in your area, or you need to see the family law facilitator in your area to get advise and file for dissolution and an order for you to move back in.

You need to file for divorce and get an order compelling him to give you your things. Also, it sounds like the house may be transmuted into community property or, at worst, that some portion of the principle may be yours. You should talk with a local attorney about this.

Telephone the police and they should agree to come out with you and allow you to get your things. Then retain an attorney and file for divorce as soon as possible.

You do in fact have certain rights and interests to the property even though you are not on the deed based on the minimal facts you provided. But at the very least, you are entitled to your very personal clothes, toiletries, and effects and I'm so sorry he has done that to you given your situation as it is! You should consult with an attorney as soon as possible to discuss immediate court intervention, possibly even some criminal measures if he is in fact harboring certain personal items that definitely would not be subject to property division.

File for divorce, seek temporary orders for support, payment of the bills and use of the property, along with injunctions. Upon final order you should get a share of the equity in the house and his retirement.

The house is considered community property as long as purchased during marriage. You can call police for a civil standby to remove some of your personal items (drivers license, social security card, necessary clothes). You will need to file for divorce and get a court order giving you date and time to remove larger items. Contact an attorney.
