More details to this question:
I'm still married husband owned home before our marriage, I lived here with him prior to marriage now he is trying to evict me can he do that and if so what can I do to stop him. What court do I need to address this in to stop him,because he has shown me paper saying I have 30days to vacate notarized by a notary republic & signed by him is that legal or do I have to receive something from the courts? He has also taken the doors off of the house because the police told him he couldn't change the locks without giving me a key so now the house is open day & night. What can I do about that because anybody can just come in this house day or night and do anything. I'm at a loss and I'm in the State of Virginia

Lawyers.com offers general information and not legal advice. If your husband has filed any formal proceedings with the Court, you must be served with a copy of what has been filed. Due Process requires that you receive notice and an opportunity to be heard in court. If you have not received any documents from the Court, there is little you can do until you know what relief he is seeking from the court. I suggest that you ask him what has been filed with the court and when you will receive a copy of the paperwork. Unfortunately, your questions cannot be answered in this forum. I suggest that you confer with a lawyer in your area to discuss this matter in greater details. Best of luck~
