My father expired lat month due to sepsis after an operation in Bhopal. He did not leave a will. He has properties and FDs in Bhopal and Inherited properties in a village in Uttar Pradesh. He left behind 5 children (4 daughters + 1 son) and a wife. My brother's family and my mother lived with him in a house also owned by my father in Bhopal. I have following questions: 1. Who has the authority to sell his properties? What will be the process to sell his properties? 2. What can be done about his bank accounts and FDs? He did not leave a nominee's name in any of those. 3. Can my brother sell it without the sisters' presence/approval? 4. Does my mother have the authority to sign the sisters' share to the brother? 5. Is there any work-around/ loophole that my brother can use to take over the sisters' shares? 6. What is the process/documents a sister needs to go through to let go of her share? 7. What are my mother's rights and inheritance? Also, about the cause of my father's death, I am very suspicious that there was negligence from the hospital's side. They did not take timely note of his early signs of sepsis that led to his death. What can I do to file a negligence case against the hospital? What documents will I require?

In a joint family with regards to an ancestral property, is it possible for me whose name does not exist in the title of the lands because the "property is in the sole name of my mother who is living" register release deed to my sister whose name too is not in the title of the lands. In other words, I can register a release deed in the present day permanently releasing my future rights to ancestor lands that I will inherit 20-30 years later?

Background of the Case: This is a partition suit between 4 siblings in the state of Karnataka. Plaintiff (one of the siblings) has filed a partition suit with remaining 3 siblings. Out of the 3 siblings 2 are deceased (1 brother and 1 sister) hence their respective wife and children are included in the defendant. (overall 9 defendants) So Plaintiff is claiming for 1/4th of the share along with expenses he made on the properties/agricultural land to improve their state. Out of the listed properties in the partition suit, the estimate value plaintiff has mentioned is 4CR INR, with 1/4th share to be 1CR INR. Plaintiff is claiming 1CR + 45 lakhs (his expenses). Although the benefits of the investment have not been mentioned in the form of rents/crop harvest by Plaintiff and one of the Defendants. So in this case not sure if the document correctly represent this value. There is one lawyer being being appointed to represent all 11 defendants except one defendant who benefited from the rent and might have their own lawyer. I have two questions: I am one of the defendants in the suit. My mother(deceased) is one of the siblings, hence I get 1/4th of 1/4th share of this partition suit. Current estimate share as per the partition suit document is 25 lakhs INR. 1. The next hearing is on 19/12/2020 (looks like Lok Adalat in Karnataka is happening on the same date), should I hire a lawyer to request for more time given that I just got the notice recently. How can I access the case document online and not the case status. 2. How much is average lawyer fees for this partition suite if I hire my own layer to raise objections on the list of properties, his claim on expenses, etc. and go all the way. 3. How much is my Court fees i.e. defendant in this case? Is there a percentage of my share that I should be looking at for Karnataka state? Is there any online link that I can refer?
