Domestic abuse victim here with a question. I live in Maryland. My ex-boyfriend (we lived together for 2 years) has been in jail for 6 weeks now due to a domestic disturbance at which time my teen daughter called 911. I wanted him out of my home, but probably would not have pressed charges (he said at one time that he would kill me and my daughter before allowing himself to be arrested), but due to the fact that he had pushed my daughter into a counter during the dispute, the sheriff's department arrested him. I have obtained a protection order since that time and filed an additional charge because he broke the protection order by trying to call me from jail. The criminal trial for the charges filed by the police department and my charge against him will be held December 23.
Now for my question - I received a letter today by express mail from his father who lives in Missouri (where my ex is from) with a detailed list of all his son's things that I have so that I can box them all up and he (the father) can pick them up. I'm not a money grubber or anything, but I have fully supported his alcoholic son for the past year and a half while he sat on his lazy butt at home, and I don't feel I should have to give all the things back. Where do I stand legally? (I don't have money to hire a lawyer)
