My 80 yr. old husband was arrested for domestic battery on me. He had his bank account on a seperate account which I have no access to 80% of our income. I have no way to pay our bills and no money for an attorney. Can I be appointed guardinship over his affairs so I can pay the bills? He has dementia but of course wont admit that but I have Dr. reports that say different. HELP.
Yes you will have to petition for guardianship and it is likely you will be appointed guardian over him and his affairs. What are they doing for the criminal defense case?
