Q: My father will not willingly share any of the money from grandmother foreclosed home.any options?

My uncle ended up racking up $27,000 worth of back taxes and so the bank foreclosed on the home and he was evicted my cousin whose father has passed away revieved a part of the money that was left after the taxes were paid and the rest was split between my father,uncle and cousin (whos father passed). I'm just as much a part of the family as my cousin is and my grandmother would have wanted me to get same part.but sadly my father,whos a incredibly selfish,child molesting, narricist is still living. I know that sounds harsh but I many justifiable reasons for saying that.he never even paid my mother any child support .which i looked into sueing him but my mother was too nice and never took him to court.so not court ordered, has never been. I'm just wondering if I have any kind of options whatsoever to legally do anything to get a fair part i think i should revieve
