I’m 20 and will be 21 in November, my parents are getting divorced and now my mom wants to kick me out but my dad is giving me permission to stay. They both own the house that we live in and have equal right to the property; they went to court over child support and when to sell the house. My mom claims that I sabotaged her in court and wants to kick me out. She said after the courts verdict (25th of September) she’s giving me a written notice to leave. She also told my family I don’t deserve support and I’ll have to figure things out on my own or hope my dad will help me. I talked to him and he said I’m welcome to stay, but I don’t want me mom to call the cops on me and have me forcibly removed. Does she have more authority over my dad to kick me out?

We don’t know yet, the final decision will be made Sept 25th. My dad wants to sell the house immediately and my mom wants to keep it for a few years.
Either way, you will eventually have to get a job and a place of your own. Time to put on your grown-up pants and get busy adulting.

Reality check. One way or the other, you are out.

You have two choices.

Find yourself a job right now so you have a couple of paychecks before the divorce is final and can get a place to live.

Wait for the axe to fall and be broke and homeless.

FAFO.

I am curious.
You don't mention school. You don't mention having a disability.
So, I'm not sure what your issues with your mom are, but you shouldn't count on living with her after the divorce.
Try moving in with your dad.

I had just moved back home 2 weeks ago bc I had my own place for the summer and where I was supposed to get an apartment my job fell through.

I was in college but I have student debt now and didn’t get enough money from fafsa and scholarships. I just talked to my dad today and he said I could move with him.

I start my job this Friday and I have about 2 months to save up. Talked to my dad today and he said I could move with him if I help with rent, so all it good.

Well, moving in with your dad solves some of your problems.

Having your parents divorce is more than a tad stressful, so taking a break from school isn't the worst thing in the world. And you've answered your initial question.

Hopefully your parents both have lawyers.
