Legal Question in Family Law in New York

My brother is separated for almost a year, three kids, wife through him out, Lab

My brother's wife through him out last November and changed the locks. He moved to my mothers. They have three kids. He was paying the mortgage and giving her $350 a week on top of that. Leaving himself with $50 a week. She has a boyfriend, even the kids know about it on Labor Day she moved out of the house, my brother moved back in. She said she moved out because the house was under construction and if she moved out, he'd fix it. She also told him she plans to come back after the house is fixed and will be sure it is before the year is up. Can she do this? She is really messing up her kids. They do share join custody and that is the only thing they agree on.

Is there a court order here? Or even a pending divorce case?

Sounds like your brother needs a lawyer.
