My partner and I do not get along anymore. Our house is in escrow and he refuses to sighn the closing papers. The loan is in my name, and my partner is on the title. Can I finish the deal without his signature?

You both own the property - it takes both of you to sell the property. If you are divorced from your partner, it should all be addressed in the divorce decree. If you were just real estate business partners, I hope it was all addressed in the contract outlining your partnership.
Why should he refuse to sign? He won't get his half of the proceeds until it closes.

Sorry, but no there is no way you will be able to sell your home unless he sign over his interest in the house.Meaning your title company draw up papers that he will sign saying he wants nothing to do with the house. And I saw an answer were the person said stop paying the mortgage and let the bank have it that's not a good idea because your name is the only name on the loan he's just on title so that mean you are responsible for the payments of the loan if it foreclose it goes on your credit not his. Sorry

You are the stupid person in the world. How could you let your partner in the title while you pay the house. All you have to do is to go the the court house.

Tell your ex that you will stop paying the morgage and the bank will reposses unless he agrees to talk

Don't sell it. Rent it out and don't tell him.
