It will be expensive but, yes. My brother went through something similar. He went through the court system and won custody of his son.

The laws on parental interference and/or kidnapping vary state to state. You should consult an attorney on this one.
One of the questions I would raise is why has the father not tried to locate or pursue the mother in any way for 15 years? Now all of the sudden he wants to be a dad?

its not like the mom destroyed anything or took anything or didnt pay back money

Not monitory, meaning not for money. He can sue if proved paternity to see the baby, he might have to pay "back" child support

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As long as he is the biological father, he can sue for at least visitation rights. Contact a lawyer that free legal advice.

Yes. It's actually considered kidnapping to be honest with you.
