Los Angeles Judge Jessica Uzcategui ruled Friday after Cher, 79, cited Elijah's drug abuse and financial instability; Elijah, 49, is currently in custody at a psychiatric hospital in New Hampshire facing multiple criminal charges.
Cher argued her son’s deteriorating mental health and substance abuse left him unable to manage finances, referencing past damages to Airbnb properties and hotel expulsions, but the court found no sufficient urgency or evidence for conservatorship.
Elijah’s estranged wife, Marieangela King, was deemed unfit for support and is now a major creditor; Cher’s previous conservatorship petition was also denied in 2024 amid ongoing concerns about Elijah’s well-being and legal troubles.
