Coop aptJan 11, 2017

Hi my name is Evangelina. I am the sole shareowner of a cooperative 3 bedroon apt in the bronx. I am currently going through very difficult and ugly divorce. My soon to be Ex husband has thrown out all of my personal belongings. He is currently living in my coop apt with his three adults children, ages 31, 29, and 25. He has given my Master room to his 29 yr's old son. And his oldest daughter 31 yr's of is a certified teacher whom works for the Board Of Education. And according to the HPD standard coop bylaws doesn't not clarify to live there. As to the Coop has a standard low income for shareholders. I did go to Housing Court for an ILLEGAL LOCK OUT. The judge did grant me re- entry and said my husband isn't allowed by law to keep me out. However the situation has become very critical. As to which I don't have a place to live. I was staying with a friend who unfortunately had to move to another state. MY QUESTIONS May I go to my apt and demand my sleeping quarters return to me. May I remove my Stepson's personal items (bedroom, clothing ect..) to another room in the apt to make room for myself.

Ask your attorney, but you may want to consider calling the sherrif or police.
