We have lived together for 10 year 6 in this home

You've asked a somewhat similar question twice - I still don't know what it is that you are asking.

You have lived with someone for 10 years; you have lived in the same house for 6 of those years; "someone" owns a house; "someone" has decided not to leave it and the belongings in it - is that abandonment?

I don't understand - if no one leaves, no one is abandoning anything.

Are you asking about abandoning the real estate by not paying the mortgage (the other thread) or abandoning the relationship or abandoning the belongings?

[deefradella67]

About his home, he left, packed all his clothes and walked out, said the mortgage is too high, he is not paying for it.

[JudyKayTee]

Are you on the Deed? Did you contribute toward the purchase of the house?

If you are unmarried, the Deed is in his name, he can simply walk away. He will ruin his credit, of course, but nothing says he can't do it.

I am not on the deed, no I didn't contribute towards buying the home, Although I pay all the bills except the mortgage. HE LEFT, is that abandoment of the home?

[JudyKayTee]

I still don't know what you mean by abandonment of the home.

If you mean is he abandoning the real estate, yes, he is, but that is entirely at his discretion. You have no say in that.

If you are asking if he has abandoned you, yes, he has - BUT you are not married so you have no legal action against him. He is NOT obligated to support you.

... HE LEFT, is that abandoment of the home?

Yes, but as JKT says, that doesn't mean you get it.

[deefradella67]

That's what I wanted to know. Thank you! Is there a time frame when its admendoment or is it such when he packed and left? I do not want to home, Just to make it clear. The question was asked simply because he does not see it as abandiment. I wanted to know who was right. Thank you

You still seem to be under the impression that "abandonment" has some legally significant meaning. That may, or may not, be true, but unless you can clairify what it is you mean by the term, we aren't really giving you an answer than means anything.

For example, if I am on a camping trip in the wilderness, and I might "abandon" my campsite. I have the intent, of that time, of never returning. But three days later I might come back to that site and use it again. There is no "legal" principal that would prevent me from doing so, or otherwise penalize me for this "abandonment".

And, similarly, in your "partner's" case, I don't know if you are under the belief that such a legal principal exists either.
