When you go through the court process, make sure to have the evidence (texts, emails, voice mails) of him admitting that he did this. Also, have some evidence of their value, if the items are determined to be your sole, separate property, you should be reimbursed somehow (for their current garage sale value), if the items are determined to be marital/community property, you will be reimbursed for one-half of their current value. Also, he had no right to kick you out of your residence. You should have immediately called the police to help you get back into your home. Pending a divorce, you can either both choose to live together in the marital household, or if one of you wants to move, you may do so (taking your personal belongings with you).

In California, if you and your spouse are in agreement, you can file for the Dissolution and serve him by mail (he will have to send you back and Acknowledgement of Receipt). Then you can each do your required Disclosures, and finally, you can prepare your Stipulated Judgment, have him sign it and file it with the court. Otherwise, once he is served, you would also go forward with a Default Judgment (assuming he doesn't file a Response and doesn't want to be involved in the case).
