If an owner is required to leave a homestead pursuant to a protection order obtained by the owner's spouse or to otherwise preserve peace in the home, the owner's absence from the homestead may not be considered a waiver or abandonment of the owner's interest in the homestead, unless there is evidence to the contrary.
