it is clear that you are a victim of domestic violence by your father in law. You will have to approach court under domestic violence act and take immediate reliefs like residence order. What about your husband? Your question is vague about this.

Hi
If the house is in your father's name and self acquired then he can legally keep you out if the house. In fact if you forcefully try to gain entry he can file civil and criminal case against you.This reply is based on the assumption that you are a male.
