    He has a right to go to court and request whatever he wants. He might even be able to get 50% (joint custody) but ultimately it is up to the court to decide. A change in support is unlikely if there are no changes in income to justify it. If he had more income when the amount was set he may be able to get the support modified.

    So basically yes, he has a chance. Although since its only been a month or two, chances are the judge will not modify the visitation. Have you gotten notification from the court about the change? Most places won't even allow a hearing so quickly after something is set.
