What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Minnesota
My domestic partner of 4 1/2 years broke up with me on Sunday, and said get out. I am staying with friends for the time being, but I was wondering what my rights are if I want to go back home.
These are the current facts:
1. She is the homeowner and has been for approx. 20 years.
2. After telling her that I didn't want to give up my apartment in case she decided to throw me out, she stated she would never do that.
3. While she pays the mortgage and insurance, I pay all the utility bills and most of the entertainment.
4. it is listed as my legal residence on my Drivers License and through the post office, as well as on the current US Census and on my passport.
5. I am listed as a point of contact in case of emergency.
6. There have been no cases of domestic violence, except from her occasionally punching my shoulder, arm, or back when she's frustrated or angry. On rare occasions when she shrieks at me, I shrug it off, where if our roles are reversed she claims I'm verbally assaulting/threatening her.
7. On occasion, when arguing, I would stand in front of her to block a door so she could hear me out, I would then move and let her go on her way, but I have never touched her in anger, or physically or emotionally attacked her in any way.
8. I am listed as a beneficiary and am on her insurance policy as her domestic partner. I am also on her health insurance.
9. All of my earthly possessions (clothes, electronics, food, furniture, camping equipment, storage containers, bicycles, e.t.c.) are in the home, and I have no access to them.
10. For months there has been alienation of affection in the home toward me.
Am I legally entitled to go back to the home and stay as long as there are no domestic incidents?
