If your divorce court orders requires your ex spouse to move out at "the end of November," you will need to wait until that time comes and passes before you can file a contempt motion for failing to vacate the residence. If they fail to get out when court ordered, you can proceed after that point by filing a contempt motion with the court to have them removed.

If your court papers indicate he needs to vacate by end of November and if he fails to leave after that point, you will need to file a contempt motion with the court to have him removed from the property. You will need to wait and see if he complies first, prior to filing.
