Often the latch has been closed and the door won't catch until the latch is popped back. Use a screwdriver or other tool, make sure the door is unlocked then operate the inside door handle and open the latch lever with the screwdriver.

I'm not too certain what you mean by jammed. If you just mean out of aligned door, you can loosen your hinge screws and realign the door.
