Bit of a quick back story. Family home transferred to me by court order (happening next week) ex husband currently living there and has to move on.
Court order said that the possessions need to be divided. Ex to send me a list of what he will be taking for me to agree etc. List came yesterday and he is taking it all. All the kitchen appliances, both sofas, all the beds.....I mean everything.
He will move out Tuesday and I get the keys from solicitors and have locksmith ready etc. Due to level of domestic abuse I simply can’t go and get anything and purely waiting for him to go to find out the state he has left it in. I do have all the sentimental bits.
I called the solicitor and she says this happens often and he is punishing me because the court swayed in my favour a lot. But we have a four year old who he doesn’t see for 15 months so her needs came first. Just really goes to show what he thinks about his child leaving her a house with no furniture or no kitchen.
Anyway I’ve called the solicitor and obviously said I would like him to leave one of the kitchen appliances and the sofa bed so I have somewhere to sleep for now. But she has said he WILL end up taking it all and it’s not worth the money fighting.
I’ve also asked for my jewellery back, I have a ring I could sell and pay for all the furniture I need but he took it all from me...
Should I just let him take it all and count my losses, after all I’m getting the house back???
