What is the name of your state? PA.

Yes, my brother is worried that when he files his income tax, his daughter's mother wil try and file. They are broke up, but he has been there for them and has taken care of his responsibilities, since day one(his daughter is 1 1/2). His daughter's mother has not worked for 2 1/2 years, but receives worker's comp for a hurt shoulder. Can she try to file, or should my brother be able to file this year?? She has the child and won't let my brother see her. She hasn't even filed for child support yet, but she filed something with the Juvenille service about suing my brother for custody of the child. Thank you and any information is appreciated.
