What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? North Carolina. My husband and I have been married for 11 years. We are now seperating. I would like to know if my father-in-law owns our home and we pay rent, do my son and I have to move out? My husband adopted my son at 3years old. This is the only home he has known because we lived together before we married.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
