Conservatorship of M.C. CA5
A jury found appellant was gravely disabled. The trial court entered an order appointing a conservator of her person and estate pursuant to the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act (LPS; Welf. & Inst. Code, § 5000 et seq.). The order also imposed certain legal disabilities on appellant. Appellant challenges these disabilities, raising claims of procedural error and insufficiency of the evidence. She also contends that if the procedural errors are deemed forfeited or waived, the disabilities must be stricken because they were entered as the result of ineffective assistance of counsel.
