The Public Guardian and Trustee applied to be appointed as the permanent guardian of property and personal care for a young woman with a developmental disability and a severe seizure disorder.
The respondent father opposed the application, seeking to be appointed guardian himself, despite his ongoing opposition to her medical treatment plan and residential placement.
The court found that the young woman was thriving in her current placement and receiving appropriate medical care.
The court concluded that the father's fervent opposition to her care plan raised concerns that he would interfere with her treatment if appointed, and ordered that the PGT remain as her guardian.
