Does a mortgage company have to sign over a insurance check if it is ordered by the court?

If the court orders them to do so, they will. Most times if you each follow a reasonable procedure where each understands the other it shouldn't have to go that far. However, if you have an insurance claim and have the work done--or do it yourself--in a workmanlike manner, they will usually sign off on it. The insurance money and the fix are to protect their investment. However, if you do plan to do the work yourself, check in with them first to be certain that you are meeting their criteria.

When you file a Homeowners insurance claim does insurance company cut check to you or your mortgage company?
It depends on the language of the policy. Some cut a check directly to you if the claim is under a certain monetary amount. But usually according to you escrow documents, the contract says the bank will need to be put on the check. If they cut a check to you mortgage company you name will also be included on the check and they will mail the check to you. The insurance does this for many reasons, but one is, let's say you foreclose on the home and keep the insurance money; the bank will make a claim to the insurance because the bank owns the home too and they are listed as a payee as well as you. The insurance will have to pay the claim twice due to their error.

If i am are six months late on my mortagage and I receive a insurance check for a roof leak can the mortgage company keep your check since the check came in my name and the mortgage company?
As far as I know they shouldn't be allowed to. They are on the policy in case your house becomes a total loss and the insurer then uses the settlement money to pay back the whole mortgage. Query your insurer.

What is a loss draft check?
When a homeowner has damages that occur to the home due to a natural disaster or other mishaps such as a fire or hail. The homeowner makes a claim with their insurance company. The insurance company will include the mortgage companies name on the check due to the mortgage companies vested interest in the property. If certain criteria are met, the mortgage company will "monitor" or supervise the repairs on the home to make sure that the repairs are done correctly and in a timely manner. The mortgage company will ask the borrower to endorse the claim check and send it in to the Loss Draft Department. The check will then be held in an escrow account. After certain criteria are met the mortgage company will start to disperse the claim check in portions so that that the repairs can be done. These portions are called loss draft checks or loss draft draws.
