More details to this question:
I don't have any money for probate court fees. I don't want to lose my house. My mother passed away and she didn't have a will. I'm the only child. I'm behind on the mortgage and the bank wont talk to me.

The bank can't legally talk with you because you are not the owner. The only way I know of to get the house in your name is to start a proceeding in the probate court. This would have been true even if your mom had left a will. This is the reason that people should have living trusts.
