She can not take you name off of anything without the help of the courts or you. You can voluntarily go and sign off on everything or she can take you to court and have it ordered through there. That is the only way that she can legally do it. If she goes through the courts then she will have to buy your half of the house from you. You are entitled to that much since the house is equally the both of yours. If she can not get another mortgage for that part of the obligation the court could make you sell the house and split the proceeds in half then she would be free to go buy her own. Either way she can not just take your name off of things.

No, she can't. You would either have to sell the house to a different owner or one of you would have to refinance the house in your own name, in a way buying out the other person's equity. You should check with your bank and see what options they have. If you need to get your things, you need to call the bank, get a copy of the mortgage with your name on it, and have the police escort you to the home to get your things. If you can provide any proof that the things you are taking are yours, that would be best. As long as you have your mortgage and your name is on it, she can't force you to get out...you own the property as well as she. Even if she calls the police, they won't touch it with a ten foot pole because you are an owner of the property. This is information straight from my lawyer.

If you are a partner in a contract in most countries I would think that is permanent. Depending on where you live the law may vary. You should contact an attorney and find out what your specific rights are. No one can force you to leave a home that you own, you would be within your rights to break through the lock and re-enter.

No, the holder of the mortgage holds both of you accountable - if you were married and divorced it becomes a part of the court enforced degree as to who owes what and who pays what.
In this case, if she wants possession of the house and you want possession of your possessions then you should start with a legal counter offer (probably after talking to a lawyer or a legal counseling agency) to get your stuff before agreeing to sign anything.

why did you let her family throw you out of your house? call the police and ask for an escort back into your house, at least to get your stuff.
seek legal counsel asap. protect your investment. make sure the mortgage gets paid during this time, so you don't lose the house.

she cannot take your name off, it needs to go through a court of law. You should get a lawyer who will file papers and then you will not sign off on the deed until she gives you your stuff back, along with any appreciated value of the house.

No she can not just take your name off, but she can go to court and legally try. She would need to have a concret reason to remove your name. I think your better talk to a property lawyer....fast!

If your name is on the deed she CANNOT take your name off of it without your permission.

She needs to sign the paperwork. If she won't you can take her to court since she hasn't been living with you or contributing to the payments.
