My husband is cheating on me and wont leave the house. He says that it will be considered abandonment by the law. Is this true?
He's worried about abandonment but not infidelity?? If you're wanting to divorce him, get a lawyer. A judge will grant you a divorce because of his infidelity and will help decide who gets the house.

You need to check the laws in your state and consult with an attorney who is familiar with those laws.
