Cher’s attempt to place her son Elijah Blue Allman under an emergency temporary conservatorship has been denied for the second time.
On Monday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Jessica A. Uzcategui denied the Grammy Award winner’s recent ex parte motion that Allman, 47, be placed under an emergency temporary conservatorship, according to Avi Levy, one from Allman’s attorneys.
Allman appeared in court with his legal team and his ex-wife marietoAngela Kingwhile the actress appeared remotely, while her lawyers were physically present.
The judge ruled against Cher’s proposed injunction because Allman showed that he “has managed his finances,” “has an apartment,” and “has remained drug-free” after submitting “several drug tests.”
“The Court’s ruling this morning represents a significant victory for Mr. Allman’s personal liberty and legal autonomy. “We at Cage & Miles are pleased with the Court’s decision to deny Cher’s petition for temporary guardianship,” Levy said in a statement. according to USA Today.
“The Court’s ruling underscores the principle that guardianship is a measure of last resort, not a tool to be used lightly,” Levy continued. “As the Court noted, Cher did not present sufficient evidence to establish that an emergency exists for a temporary guardianship.”
The Post has contacted representatives for Cher and Allman for comment.
The ex parte motion was previously denied earlier this month after Allman and his attorneys claimed they did not have enough time to review all of the documentation involved in the case.
Monday’s hearing date followed a hearing that took place on January 5.
During the hearing, Cher’s lawyers referenced Allman’s treatment for schizoaffective disorder. They revealed that he was placed on several 5150 holds, which allows a person with a mental illness to be involuntarily detained for a 72-hour psychiatric hospitalization, over the past year.
“Doctors told Cher that if he did not take this step like his mother, he would end up back on the street,” the attorneys claimed, adding that they were working to receive a bipolar diagnosis for Allman from a “prominent doctor.” .”
In response, the judge stated: “I do not dispute that Cher’s concerns are motivated by concern for her son. “I don’t think (Allman) questions that.”
In December, the “Believe” singer filed for guardianship of the troubled artist, citing significant “mental health and substance abuse issues,” and three months later denied allegations that four men were hired to kidnap him.
Cher filed to be the sole conservator of her son’s estate on Dec. 27, alleging that Allman, whom she had with the late singer Gregg Allman, is “substantially incapable of managing her own financial resources.”
“(Cher) has not been able to discuss Elijah’s preferences regarding the appointment of a temporary conservator because, given Elijah’s current physical and mental health problems, discussed in detail in the simultaneously filed Confidential Supplemental Information, she is unable to form or express a preference regarding the appointment of a guardian for his estate,” the documents said.
