According to the law the father property automatically transfer to their children both the son and daughter. The property can be sell with all the permission from all legal heirs or if they don't you can file a suit in the court and take stay orders against this.

Hi.. as you say there are 4 persons along with you and one of your brother had declined his share in the property of your father. One thing i have to mention is that one more share is stand for your mother if she is alive thus you have to distribute 5 equal shares. Now if one of your brothers part should be dilute only by release deed in favor you you all or any of your family. One thing always remember "non legal" wife or legal wife dose not have any right in father in law's property till his husband is alive. Your brother can sell the property share without any requirement of concern of second wife or illegal wife.
