This crap happens all the time.
1- Ignore it, or if you decide to answer, simply sate that the model release and Id on file match her, end of story.
2- He may demand to see the documents. Inform him that they are private information and ever leave your office.
3- He may threaten to sue and act tough. Inform him that its fine, and as a courtesy remind him that lawyers filing frivolous suits could be liable for your court costs, attorney's fees, and sanctions set by the court.
4- If, and only if, he sues you don't have to produce any documents until the legal discovery process starts. Thats months after the suit is filed.
5- If your do have the documents, and hopefully ID, your lawyer will file for summary judgement. Basically, saying the case is silly Mr. judge, no need for a trial, etc.
In between all that - if they actually file - there are all sorts of steps to wipe things out. Motion to dismiss, lack of jurisdiction, etc.
All of this answer depends on your story being true: She was shot, she signed release, 2257 was followed if applicable, etc.
