Was ur father accused in the case Or he showed the property papers for securing bail for someone else?
If the bail was secured by showing ur house papers in a criminal case then on his death the criminal case will be closed and nothing will happen to the property but the property can be attached/seized only if ur father jumps bail as a accused.
If he was not an accused, then u will need to find out if the accused for whom the bail was secured has been appearing before the court on direction or not. U will also need to find out if the case against that person is over or not.

If ur father stood surety for some other accused in the year 2000. You have to firstly verify about d status of the above case in which ur father stood as surety. If it was decided n accused has been acquitted then there is no need to submit any document as asked by the magistrate. If the case is still pending n accused jumped the bail after 2006 then not need to worry. As after teh death of ur father the accused has to submit fresh surety bond because after the death of ur father surety bond given by ur father automatically elapsed. You have to inform d court that ur father has died way back in 2006.
