Can a husband force his wife to vacate a domicile during a divorce even if she has no place to go?

A friend of mine is going through a divorce. She and her husband live in a rental home and have a 14 year old daughter. She currently is on disability and her husband makes an average income. Can he force her to vacate the home before the divorce decree is finalized?

Does your friend have an attorney?  She needs one asap.  What kind of agreement or order is there in place for the apartment?  One of them should be awarded the use.  And what about child support and spousal support?  Please.  She needs help.  Good luck.
