Q: I have a civil protective order against my husband but he is back at my house can I get in trouble he has no where to go
He has manipulated his way back in the house with no where to go. Away from him. He is verbally abusive and mentally unstable. The other night he was either on something or having a mentally episode. He was talking out of his head making false accusations. He threw his phone at me and then broke it in two. I threatened to call the cops and he left then called from his bosses phone a few hours later wanting to take a shower and get warm because it was snowing and freezing out. I have a plan to move to get a way from him as soon as I can get a place I also plan on filing for a divorce at that time because I am scared of how he is going to react. He has threatened me, threatened to kill himself has stalked and intimidated me. Before I go to the court or talk to the sheriff about him I would like to know will I get in trouble for him being here. I don't want him here and never did, we are in a remote area his family won't help him and he has no friends anymore.
A: You will not get in trouble. Do not let him back in. Call the police if he contacts you again.
