You will need him to go to the library in jail, or ask his counselor to sign a Power of Attorney, allowing you to handle his financial affairs while he is incarcerated. If he won't do this willingly, you will probably need a lawyer. Talk to your mortgage company, and call your local Legal Aid office. Depending on your income, you could get a free or discounted lawyer, or at least an answer. I've been there. I actually forged his name more than once, but I don't recommend it!
