ELDER LAW: Attorney out of line

CASE: QZH [2023] NSWCATGD 21

The pseudonyms:

QZH (the person of interest): "Q" or "the father"

UBH (spouse): "U-B" or "the mother"

KAH (son, applicant): "KAH" or "the good son"

OYH (son, attorney/guardian): "OYAH" or "the other son"


In this case, we have an adult son (referred to as OYH) who has moved back in with his parents. All of his possessions cluttered up the house, to the extent that his parents (both in their 80s) were forced to sleep on a mattress on the floor.

The other son (referred to as KAH) was concerned that his parents were not receiving adequate care at home. He was also concerned because OYH was appointed as attorney and guardian for their parents, and KAH did not believe that OYH was acting in their best interests.

During the time that OYH was living with the parents, the parent's net worth dropped by about $1,250,000.

He applied to the Tribunal to have OYH removed.
