Do I have to leave the house after my husband has filed?

You do not have to leave your house after the initial divorce petition has been filed. However, there should be a temporary orders hearing within a few days of the filing that determines these types of issues. Because Texas is a community property state you are entitled to half of everything that has been earned by either party outside of a gift, inheritance, or a personal injury settlement. I would advise you to contact a local family lawyer very quickly to properly protect your interests in this case.
