A: This could be a violation of the automatic temporary restraining order that goes in to effect whenever a divorce is filed. ATROS violations are illegal, but unfortunately, you need to go to court to let the judge know, get relief (e.g. one of the vehicles), etc. You will likely need a lawyer to help you as ATROS violations are fairly complex.
