Is my mother entitled to refuse the sale of my father's property and the distribution of the inheritance, claiming, "Where will my brother go?" And would I be considered disobedient if I were to sell the property through the court without her consent?
If the inherited property can be divided without harm, it must be divided. Otherwise, it should not be divided except by mutual consent. If they do not agree, and one of them requests its sale, it must be sold, and the price divided. No one has the right to refuse. If one of the heirs refuses to sell, the judge shall compel him to do so. The children's demand for their mother to divide the property or sell it is not considered an act of disobedience (disrespect).
