Re: On parenting plan that is not legal
The short answer to your question is probably no, it will not be held against your brother if he does not follow their "non legal parenting plan." On the other hand, things could go the other way, especially with the passage of time.
Your brother needs to do himself and your niece a favor right away, and that is to get divorce papers filed and have a motion for a temporary parenting plan filed as well, so that he can have something that is legally enforceable in place.
I would say that no judge or commissioner will allow for mom to keep a 4 year old in bed with boyfriend (totally inappropriate) but your brother can't do anything about it until he files and gets the legal process started.
