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

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

Wilson's doctor said the musician suffered from a “severe neurocognitive disorder” and needed help making important health care decisions.

The judge also agreed to a provision 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 message chain from his nurses to receive updates about their father if they wanted.

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 asked for a delay in the decision, but when the determination was granted, they did not ask for any further delay.

In his decision, May wrote that “the Conservate is unable to make his own health care decisions.”

His new conservators, manager-publicist Jean Sievers and business manager LeeAnn Hard, were instructed to “consult the conservator's children on all material health care decisions.”
