There are several things I would need to know to answer correctly:
- What kind of vehicle
- What year
- What type of brakes
The fact that one brake does work means there is an underlying problem with the rest that needs to be repaired.
Usually on a car one brake working means that the other three have seized hydraulic systems in each brake and require the replacement of the cylinders or Calipers.

How much to fix a break caliper leak?

What would cause the rear brakes to leak on one side wetting the pads and how do you fix this?
You have a leak in the caliper piston most likely due to rust which causes brake fluid to leak past the rubber seal. To fix, you have to either rebuild the caliper yourself or buy a rebuilt caliper from the parts store. If you buy a rebuilt caliper, it will come loaded or unloaded. Loaded = comes with brake pads. Unloaded = caliper by itself (no pads).

How Do you unlock A locked Passenger side rear brake In a 95 gti?
Ok so i figured this one out on my own. Remove the rear tire that the brake is locked up on, if the hand brake is on, lower the lever in the car. locate the e-brake wire on the rear of the disk brake/caliper. This should be behind the rotor and caliber and is identifible by the fact that it is not a hydraulic line. You should see that it is held in place by a bracket with tension on it, hence why the brake is "locked" remove the bracket holding in the brake line in place {not the hydraulic line!!} Once the bracket is removed simple pull out the e-brake line with a pair of pliers, Shazam! the brake should release. If not a few light taps with a hammer should help. Save the bracket for the e-brake as you will need it if you ever decide to fix it. This is a temporay fix with no real long term affects to your braking system, Except the fact that you will only have one E brake working.
