The sale if any done before the disposal of the case could be quashed.

The brother is just trying to sell the property in spite of status quo order from the court. If he sells it, he would be committing contempt of court. Better issue a legal notice to him and the purchaser as the sale at this point of time is prohibited.

As a precaution, you may give a publication in the local news paper cautioning the prospective buyers that the property is under litigation and the buyers are warned not venture into the risk of buying the same lest will be attracted towards contempt of court.
