IN RE CONSERVATORSHIP OF KARUBAH CARNAHAN (Tenn. Ct. App. January 21, 2011)
In this conservatorship case, a daughter filed a petition asking the court to appoint her as the conservator of her father, who had experienced cognitive decline after a stroke and required full-time care in an inpatient facility. The father's spouse protested the appointment of the daughter as the conservator and requested that a neutral third party be appointed instead. After a hearing, the trial court determined that the daughter was the appropriate person to serve as conservator. The spouse appeals. We affirm.
