My husband and I are separated. The home mortgage loan is under his name only. Can he take a second loan out without my consent against the equity of the house?

Yes, although you could probably put a stop to it by notifying the lender or loan broker of the situation. An even more effective way is to file for divorce, since once he is served with the divorce papers, he is under an automatic restraining order against encumbering or disposing of community property.
