More details to this question:
I am the defendant in this case. My daughter’s father and I have received our new orders. The last order states "The defendant shall be the designated parent who may claim the minor child as her dependent for federal income tax purposes, beginning for the tax year 2014." My daughter’s father thinks that he still gets to claim her every other year, whereas I think this states that he no longer does.

The dependency exemption appears to be yours alone.

Sounds like a court order to me; You are designated to get the deduction every year; If he tries to file and claim the minor, I would suggest you contact the IRS and give them a copy of the court order; The IRS doesn't take to kindly to people who try to defraud the government.
