Joint account

That depends on what you mean by "my brother is in my dad's joint account"

There are different ways of setting up joint accounts and/or giving access to an account. This would be specified on the mandate signed and lodged with the bank when the account was setup
 
My dad had an account everyday account and a savings account attached. A few. Months before he past he put my brother on both account. When he pasted away all funeral expenses where able to be paid as my brother was now Co owner of this account. There is a few thousand not a whole lot in account now. With my brother been Co owner can he take out rest of money. No family friction. If he took it out he would divide it evenly. Just that read in line if it is less than 25k and in a joint account he can access it.
 
As JPD says, it depends on whether your brother was a joint account holder or a joint signatory to the account.
