The applicant brother brought an application to be appointed as the sole guardian of property and personal care for his sister, who has significant cognitive and developmental limitations.
The respondent mother and sister brought a counter-application seeking joint guardianship.
The court found the sister incapable of managing property and personal care.
After reviewing the history of care and the conduct of the parties, the court dismissed the applicant's application and appointed the mother and sister as joint guardians, finding it was in the incapable person's best interests to remain in the care of her mother with a transition plan to her sister.
