What are my rights to our home if I moved out of the marital home after finding out my husband cheated?
No papers have been filed and we are both still on the mortgage. We have 2 daughters still in the home. Can I kick my husband’s girlfriend out? She does not live there but spends a lot of time there and has taken his phone unknowing to him and has called me. I feel she is a bad influence on my 2 young daughters.

Right now, you both have full access to the house and the children because there are no temporary orders to the contrary. If this woman is a bad influence, then you need to get your children and restrict her access to the girlfriend. A legal option is to file for the divorce, seek temporary orders, and request relief that outlines the rules for the house and children.
