Chief Justice Ronnie Boodoosingh has been asked to consider implementing a monitoring mechanism when a committee is appointed by a court to administer the affairs of a person suffering from a mental illness.
Attorney Peter Taylor made the call in an open letter sent to CJ Boodoosingh this weekend.
The call was in response to a case in which Taylor is involved, in which three brothers were appointed over their sister to handle the affairs of their elderly mother, who is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.
