In an early morning decision, a judge granted doctors’ requests to extend Amanda Bynes’ psychiatric hold for another 30 days.
According to
Based on local California laws, such a long psychiatric extension is only possible when a person is “gravely disabled as a result of a mental disorder.”
The judge in charge of Amanda’s case previously delayed ruling on Lynn Bynes’ request for a temporary conservatorship, which would give her power over her daughter’s financial and health-related decisions.
UPDATE The judge has approved Amanda’s parents’ request for a temporary conservatorship. Amanda wasn’t present at the court hearing, but she was reportedly opposed to the decision. The conservatorship is under Lynn Bynes’ name and is effective until September 30, but could become permanent.
