A petition to oversee Wilson’s affairs was filed in January after the death of his wife, Melinda Ledbetter Wilson.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Gus T. May there was “clear and convincing evidence that a conservatorship of the person is necessary,” reported Variety.

Wilson’s doctor said the musician suffered from a “major neurocognitive disorder” and needed help making major healthcare decisions.

The judge also agreed to a stipulation requested by an attorney for Wilson’s eldest daughters, Carnie and Wendy Wilson.

Wilson’s daughters asked that all of his children be added to a text chain from his nurses to receive updates on their father if they choose.

The addition was added to the petition before it was signed by Judge May.

Wilson has seven children, two of whom live with him.

Carnie and Wendy requested a stay on the decision but when the stipulation was granted, they didn’t ask for any further delay.

In his decision, May wrote that “the conservatee lacks the capacity to make his own healthcare decisions.”

His new conservators, manager-publicist Jean Sievers and business manager LeeAnn Hard, were ordered to “consult with the conservatee’s children regarding all material related healthcare decisions.”
