Conservatorship of A.S. CA3
In April 2020, the public guardian filed a petition for appointment of conservatorship of A.S. and her estate. A report by a county investigator, filed in connection with the April 2020 petition, detailed A.S.’s struggles with mental health. Quoting a psychiatrist who had recently examined A.S., the report observed that A.S. suffered from “psychotic symptoms of delusions and paranoid ideation,” impairing her judgment and impulse control.
The report also explained that, in an April 2020 interview, A.S. (a) “repeatedly told th[e] investigator she did not want to be conserved,” (b) expressed a desire to “work with her social worker . . . and find low income housing in Sacramento,” and (c) refused to answer multiple questions posed by the investigator, saying, “ ‘I don’t trust you,’ ” and versions of “ ‘I won’t answer, that is none of your business.’ ”
