Conservatorship of R.K. CA6
After a jury trial, Appellant R.K. was found to be gravely disabled within the meaning of the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act (LPS Act) (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 5000 et seq.). The court entered judgment based on the jury’s verdict, appointing Respondent Public Guardian for Santa Clara County (public guardian) as conservator of the person of R.K. On appeal, R.K. asks us to reverse the judgment arguing that errors throughout the proceedings deprived him of various statutory and constitutional rights.
Shortly after R.K. filed this appeal, the trial court terminated the conservatorship and discharged the conservator. R.K. requests that this court nevertheless address each of the issues he raises on appeal. For reasons that we will explain, we will dismiss the appeal as moot.
