Conservatorship of Benvenuto
California Court of Appeal
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion
BLEASE, Acting P. J.
Appellant Victor F. Benvenuto seeks a reversal of an order reappointing a conservator of his person and estate under the provisions of the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act (LPS), Welfare and Institutions Code section 5350 et seq.). He contends the trial court erred in finding him “still gravely disabled,” the predicate for reestablishing the conservatorship. He also contends the trial court erred in failing to inform him of his right to jury trial on the issue whether he is gravely disabled. Both contentions have merit and we reverse the judgment (order of reappointment)…
