How can I stop my husband from takingboth of our cars?
We are separated, do not live together, and we have 2 vehicles. The one I use is under both of our names. I use it to get to work and get our daughter to/from school. He is threatening to take it from me, how can I stop him?

I am assuming that you are separated but with out any property distribution agreement or any filing of a divorce and any order of the court granting exclusive use or occupancy of the marital assets, correct? Then you may not be able to stop him from what appears to be harassment on his part, which is really what I do think that it is. So you now know what you need to do: get to court and start an action for something based upon your concerns. It may be time to file for divorce. You can not live each day wondering what your options are. If there is an order and he violates it then he is in contempt and can be hauled in to jail. Get help. Good luck.
