Ok so what he did was start an action for partition to ask the court to divide and/or sell the property, correct? But I need to ask: are you both on the deed as well? If so, then you have just as much of a right to be in the property as he does so long as the court did not order you out. So the locks he changed - illegal. And if the court ordered you out I would be very surprised to hear. I think you need to seek legal counsel here. Call you local Bar Association and see if they have a referral service. Even if you go for a free consultation. Good luck.
