Your being on the joint account allows you to withdraw the funds not cash your father's checks. You should inquire at the local probate court to see if there is some type of petition you could file to obtain the power to cash the checks. You may have to file a petition for administration that will list all his heirs at law and provide them with notice of the petition. When that is allowed and an administrator appointed, the court will provide letters testamantary that will enable you to act on behalf of the estate. You could also ask the bank what documentation they would require for you to be able to cash the checks. You should act quickly before the checks expire.
