Judge signs termination of emergency conservatorship for Noah H.

A chancery judge in Stewart County on the record ended an emergency conservatorship for Noah H. at the request of the petitioner, Kimberly Barry, who identified herself as the child's mother.

Barry told the court she sought a temporary emergency conservatorship earlier but now believes it is no longer necessary because Noah is doing better and has executed a general durable power of attorney. The judge placed Barry under oath and asked her to confirm that she chose not to pursue a permanent conservatorship; Barry replied, "Yes." The judge signed the order terminating the temporary conservatorship.

The court did not enter additional findings beyond the parties' statements that the emergency measure was no longer needed and that a durable power of attorney was in place. No formal motion or contested response by a third party is recorded on the transcript.
