15-Apr-2025 (In Property Law)
MY MOTHER DIED INTESTATE AND WE ARE 2 SISTER AND BROTHER BUT BROTHER BUT BROTER IS NOT SIGNING RELEASE DEED ..IF HE NOT SIGNED WHAT IS PROCEDURE AFTER THAT.
If your mother died intestate (without a will), all her legal heirs – including both daughters and the son – have equal rights in the property. A release deed requires voluntary consent from the heir. If your brother is not willing to sign the release deed, you cannot compel him. In such a case, you can file a partition suit in the civil court for division of the property. The court will decide each heir's share and order partition or sale, depending on the situation. You may also consider sending a legal notice first to initiate communication and place your intention on record.
if mother has died intestate then you need to file for letter of administration from court. Intestate succession refers to the process of distributing a deceased person's property when they die without a valid will or testament. In India, this process is governed by personal laws, like the Hindu Succession Act for Hindus, or the Sharia Law for Muslims.
