Im sorry - I am trying to understand your question but its awfully difficult with the total lack of punctuation and abbreviations.

But as a general rule, if he does not have fill custody now, it will awfully difficult for him to change that against the will of the custodial parent.

I think from the way I read it he IS married now to the custodial parent.

For the OP. He needs to call the police and have the Mother in Law charged with kidnapping. As soon as they try anything.

If the mother is "fit" he will not get full custody but should get joint custody normally.

He has to file. If he did not "see" his child for 3 years that is either they were not found, or he did not go to court and get a custody order with a order for visits and enforce it.

I don't understand something. The OP says the children's mother is illegal but claims the children on her income taxes - why doesn't the brother bring up her illegal status in court?
