PFAs
#214042 - 06/23/08 09:37 AM (65.40.136.168)

My stbx and I are separated. I have my own apartment now. He showed up the other day and demanded that I let him in. I told him that if he didn't leave that I would call the police. He claimed that he had every right to be there since we are still married. I know that he doesn't. He says he wants to "check out" my place to make sure I'm not doing anything "bad". He says it's for the well being of my son. I don't even have custody of my son at my place yet. We are still in a "bird nesting" agreement. He has no reason to be there. Is this enough to get a PFA (protection from abuse)? We don't have restraining orders in PA.

did he push himself in? Did he force open the door? If so, yes.

If not, simply document the situation in writing stating that he has no right to be at your home.

I don't really know the law in this case, but I would think that if you have your own apartment after getting separated, that this is not his domain and he's not allowed in unless you want to let him in. Especially if he pushed his way in, you have reason to file something. If he didn't get in, I'd think it's more of a grey area. How violating! I'm sorry he's being such a jerk.
