I'm not sure if anyone will really be able to help, as I'm in the Republic of Ireland rather than the UK, but it's difficult getting through to anyone at the moment to get any advice, so posting here.
Me and ex split up at Christmas, he was asked to leave at end of Jan due to his behaviour. He took some of his stuff with him, I've taken him some things since also. I've also sent him documents, written letter for official stuff, but I don't reply to messages asking how I am and have blocked him on social media, which I don't think he likes.
He now has a more settled place and wants the rest of his stuff, wants to come here and see everything and go through the house and get stuff, along with some guy he's working for who will give him a lift. I don't want him to come here. He was abusive and I don't feel safe with him and some random guy coming into the house I live in alone. I also feel like he's going to be trying to claim some things I have paid for are his, and don't want to be in the position where two men are intimidating me into giving over things I've paid for. So I said, I'll drop your stuff down to you.
Now he's saying he has a right to come into the house to get his things, and that he could maybe convinced not to come, whatever that means?? Does he have a legal right to enter the house? The house isn't owned by either of us, but belongs to my family. When he lived here he didn't pay any rent or bills (or anything at all, as he didn't work). I'm offering to take his things to him, so I'm not withholding them.
I'm just so worried about him turning up here, and I know whatever I say he will not like it. What are my/his legal rights here?
