Court grants conservatorship petition for Anthony Bumpus; judge requires medical sworn statement in file
Summary
A petition to appoint co-conservators for Anthony Bumpus was granted after the court reviewed qualifications and the applicant's caregiving plan; the judge required the medical sworn statement be on the court file as mandated by statute.
The court granted a petition to appoint co-conservators for Anthony Bumpus after the applicant and a witness testified about qualifications and caregiving plans. The applicant described his occupational background (some college, retired state trooper) and confirmed he had not been convicted of a disqualifying offense. The court asked for and reviewed a medical sworn statement from the attending health-care provider and directed counsel to file a copy with the clerk's office so the requirement imposed by statute would be met.
Judge David D. Wolfe said he had no problem granting the request once the medical statement was in the file and signed the order appointing the conservators. The court also noted a request to waive bond, which the judge granted given the conservator's representations about limited assets and the circumstances presented.
