More details to this question:
My husband abandon the property and our marriage and he came over to the house Christmas Eve and took one of the vehicle. He is not paying for it. I am paying the mortgage, association fees, my car note, and the car insurance. My car note is very high so I have purchase a car with a lower payment since I am paying all the bills with my disability payments. I am trying to trim the budget. He is not talking to me and I am drowning in debt right now. I have always signed his name. We have not signed any papers he just walked away from our marriage.

NO! Doing this can result in criminal consequences for fraud/forgery!!!!! You need to obtain a divorce and use the Decree to clear your husband' snake from all the property! Consult with a lawyer right away!

You cannot legally sign his name on anything without a written power of attorney. If you do, he can press charges for forgery.

Without authorization, you are committing forgery. Your best bet is to file for divorce and then see if bankruptcy is appropriate. You need to talk with a local lawyer to figure out what you need to do.

I would not recommend signing his name without written authorization from him. That may be interrupted as a criminal fraud.
