If someone goes to jail, their bank accounts remain active unless there are specific legal restrictions placed on them. However, they may not be able to access their accounts while incarcerated, depending on the bank's policies. Family members or a designated power of attorney may be able to manage the accounts on their behalf.

What happens when your home is in foreclosure and you have an equity line of credit on this home?

The line of credit is no longer usable and the bank that gave you the line of equity will be asking you to pay the balance. The mortgage holder will also be asking for the deficiency after the foreclosure auction. Alternatively, the banks may send you a 1099 early next year so you will owe taxes on the "forgiven" balance.
