Not sure what the question or the issues are. Being autistic does not inherently render one legally incompetent and your factual statements seem some what incredulous. Presumably your sibling or thier legal guardian will need to hire counsel, and unless thats you, you, you have no say in the issue. You can assist them if you want by usuing the find a lawyer feature on this site.
