Forced out of his own house....
How ridiculous can family law get???
In a bizarre case before the courts, an Edmonton man has been forbidden from going to his own home while his girlfriend - whom he has told to get out - is still living there.
Todd Shandro, 36, went before a judge yesterday to try to resolve the situation, but he was told there were jurisdictional issues and he has to take the matter to civil court.
"It's very sick what is happening here," said a frustrated Shandro. "I am the sole owner of the house. The mortgage and title are in my name and she is essentially a squatter.
"It's ridiculous. The system doesn't seem to be working here and she is bending the law to her own advantage."

He should never have been charged with assault to begin with. The two of them were committing trespass to property, and in attempting to use force to cause them to leave. His actions therefore fall under the defense of real property. He is allowed to use reasonable force to get them to leave the premises.
You have not a clue what you are talking about 'paulm'! Mr. Shandro has fallen short of painting the true picture. It is no surprise that he is being rallied around by "GayandRight"
You may wish to follow up on the case as it is presented in court. I am certain you will have a different opinion when you hear the entire story. Poor Mr. Shandro
